It's hard to find

It's hard to find

imposing words

to define a simple thing.

A gap in my heart,

left when you left,

remains, and keeps reminding

 

how nice it was

to have you here.

Holding my hand as I stepped,

as a child to the world

of thoughts and books

and things of value to be kept.

 

Woman I've become,

and so Man you must be;

making the world your own.

While I by myself,

must take it for myself

before you will return.

 

And so I have

a gap here now

until we've made our way.

Til we've run the race

so we can place

as King and Queen of the World.
