Losing someone (3)

It's not that I just think of you, every now and then,

Or that I sometimes hope that I, will see you once again.

It's not that you're the late night thought, I try to keep at bay,

Or that I wonder how you are, when I start my day.

It's not that I wish you were here, when I feel alone,

Or that I'm calling out your name, when I'm coming home.

 

It is that I look for you, in an empty room,

And that since you walked away, all I see is gloom.

It is that I overthink, everything you said,

And that no matter what I try, you're always in my head.

It is that everything I think, and all the things I do,

are drained and soaked and coloured black, by the loss of you.
