absence makes heart grow fonder
as void creates the want,
as distance creates the wonder
as lack provides a taunt

as two magnets separated
from each other liberated
yet forever tied
as a groom to bride

by invisible bond
as from world beyond
as tangled quantum particle
o' synchronicity incredible

but when something's gone
'n utterly unattainable
then disappears attraction
enchantment unexplainable

Nostalgic, elegiac sentiment,
the undertones of mourning,
suggest there's still a fragment
of the loss that's calling

the energy of the parent
though from this world gone
echoes as if apparent
as if they'd not passed on
