Essence

She left without saying goodbye
She left no forwarding address
No more tears,
She left no I'll call you
Only her essence in both forms
Male and Female,her smile,her eyes
She left me a brighter tomorrow
She left her memories
SHe left her essence,her  scent
She left me a reason to smile instead of cry....
