Gone

I miss you,
And everything you do.
But it's time to move on,
Because I know you're gone.

I haven't seen you in years,
You've faced all your fears.
All alone,
Why don't you come home.

And though I still remember your smile,
I haven't seen it in a while.
You know I've been fighting,
And you know what I've been writing.

But if you want to stay clear,
And never come back here.
Then that is all up to you,
Don't look at me, we're through.

Stopping by to say hello and let you I enjoyed reading your poetry today Maria. I am in the process of packing up to move in a couple weeks so not much time for one on one. I will be stopping by when I can. Have a wonderful weekend and keep your pen flowing. Love and blessings, Carol
