How can you miss me?
I did not know I was gone.
I am still here,
surrounding you,
keeping you safe.
You are lost
I see your tears,
but cannot seem to provide
the comfort you crave.
I am still here;
remember the smiles and the laughter?
Remember me holding your hand?
You are my everything
and I am not gone.
I am the air you breathe,
and the wind that whispers your name.
Feel me?
I am the rain
and the sun,
and maybe even the cat next door,
when he rubs himself affectionately
against your legs.
See me?
I am marking you,
you are still mine.
By your side,
I am.
I am walking with you,
and you
are walking with a ghost.
