Each empty room

I walk into each empty room - the house you'd lived for years - although you're gone, I feel you still, and cannot help the tears. I sense your presence, that I'd swear, as though you're watching me; I turn around but you're not there (at least I cannot see). I whisper, 'Love you' - just in case and close my eyes to 'see' your face.
