And with you gone,
I was afraid I’d forget you.
But I was wrong.
I see you in everything—
in every wave that comes ashore to greet me,
in every song the birds sing
outside my window.
Even at night,
I find you between the stars.
And I wish I could leave the earth
just to visit you.
But I can’t—
so I lie on the cold stones,
look up at the sky,
and envy the stars.
Oh, how lucky they are
to be in your presence.
