You are the breath of song
that laughs in my ear
That dissapears when I turn around
Evaporating around my fingers like smoke
falling to the ground like sand
and vanishing in the wind you came with
You are the echo of a heartbeat
that just before I fall asleep
resounds in my ears and in my soul
That turns into the gentle ticking of my clock
when I listen too hard to find you
You are the warm skin I feel on mine
when I first wake up
When arms can still exist around me
because my dreams haven't yet left
For they are chased away by mornings light
You are the smile in the mirror behind my reflection
The one I turn to face
to embrace
The one that is never there
You are the feel of a kiss
hot and real against my lips
The feel of goodmorning
and goodnight
and goodbye
You are the memory of a lover
You are the one I will never forget
You are the reason my eyes rain with the thunder
because you always danced outside in a storm
You are the gentle caress I feel on my face
when my tears are wiped away
and the wind whispers to me
"I will always love you"
In perfect imitation of your voice
