I think I saw you last night Waiting at the edge of the crosswalk talking on the phone I blinked and you were gone A glitch in the universe I suppose But this morning I saw you again On the edge of my lawn looking at my window I threw it open but you weren't there I closed it and turn around I saw you there in my room your hand gently touching my face You smell so distinct A smile stretched across your face I missed you you said You've been doing well you said I breathed and you were gone Back to where ever it was that souls go I want to say Heaven But you left so suddenly you couldn't let go and I still can't let go
