What are you doing now

So many times I drift off on to nowhere , lost in a memory and wondering, what are you doing now ?
For so much of my life , ‘twas made living to love you , thinking of you was just the norm , full of love.
Were you lost in a daydream ,driving off to the store , was the wind rolling it’s fingers in your hair , as you strolled in the sunshine.
I picture your smile , how often I’ve seen it.  And tasted your lips , rose petaled and wine.
Were your hands locked in someone else’s , do you still have my heartstrings , do thoughts of me even enter your mind .
So many dreams we had planned on , so many tomorrows you left behind , so many promises you made me , for one , you’d always be mine .
What are you doing now ?
Are you working in the yard , or on the job , or in the kitchen , I wanted to be at your side no matter what , or when .
I’d stay awake with you in the evening , and wake when you before the sun , just so you wouldn’t have go at it alone .
What you never realized was to me it never mattered , where ever you are is where I called it my home .
But now your somewhere , and maybe with someone , anyone , it seems , just not me , yet I can’t help myself , I can’t get past you , and all that you were to me .
Are you with him , are you sleeping , are you smiling and laughing , alone , or under the stars ?
Do you ever wonder about me , or was I just another step in your heart.
Do you ever think of me too and ask also ,what what is “he “doing now ?
.... what are you doing now ?
what are you doing now ?
what are you doing now ?
