Gone Away

by @blinkingnose

I reminisce too much. Besides, what else is there to do? Remnants of the past, fragments Still squirming in my conscience In some vague room A flicker of my smile, a candle, a black robe And my button down shirt Laid across the floor for you to step on And you carefully tip toed To catch me in time, but I wasn't falling The seasons have passed exceedingly slowly But now, I am smiling again My nights are somehow less tormented It is beautiful today and I have things to do But before I leave and conquer the week I pause, if only for a moment, in this sun lit room I touch the French window And leave you behind, one last time Like shabby finger prints on unstained glass
