don’t know where you went
but I still talk like you’re listening
Like somewhere above me
there’s a version of you
just out of reach
but still close enough to feel
I call out in the quiet sometimes
like silence might answer back
if I say your name right
I don’t need everything back
I just need a moment—
one breath!!
Where it feels like you’re here again.
Come back down to earth for a second
Let me see you
Let me know I’m not just talking to the sky
I miss you in ways I can’t explain out loud
In ways that don’t really leave
And I know you may not come back…
I just needed to say it anyway

I Love You, Be Safe. This One Is For Madilyn <3
