It's everything and yet it is nothing It's the prayer you speak out loud and in silence It's never forgetting and yet constantly having to remind yourself It's uncompromising It's speaking their name with so much sorrow It's the pain you know but can not explain It's the driving force that navigates the course of your life It's unassuming It’s hearing the wind a little louder and yet silencing the rain drops It’s seeing colours so much more vividly and yet so dull It's the change in your perspective It's unrelenting It's finding your tears in the strangest places at the oddest hours It’s sleepless nights with beautiful dreams It’s being there for the people they left behind It's unfailing It's realising there's no promise of tomorrow It's the voice you hear in the place of their absence It's discerning life is nothing and yet it is everything It's unyielding
It’s in the ache in your chest The beating of your heart It's in the tears in your eyes The redness of your cheek It’s in the stride of your step The weakness in your knees It's in the clarity of your thoughts The serenity of your mind It’s in the clouds in the sky The vastness of its depth It's in the ground that you walk The soil beneath It’s in the darkness that engulfs The light that shines through It’s in the memories of the past The hopes of the future It’s in the stories that you tell The words unspoken It’s in the blessing of their life The impact they’ve made It’s in the void that they’ve left The emptiness of it
