I remember
Hearing the wind
Whisper to the trees,
To have the stars
Kiss me goodnight,
To feel the moist earth
Underneath my feet,
To have everything
Make perfect sense
Then I met you,
And my world started spinning
In a different direction-
The Unknown
Where everything must be questioned
But there was a sense
That no matter what happened
I couldn’t be lost
Not with you there
To guide me on
Now you,
My missing puzzle piece
Have fallen off the table
Into the cold abyss of snow
Where not even spring could revive you
Your light and warmth
Have been captured
By the frost and darkness
And now I don’t think I’ll ever be found
In our world that was once spinning
In a different direction
Because without you
My world has drawn a blank
But I remember
When the wind whispered to the trees
And everything made sense
