Gone

The leaves change, the world spins, birds still sing;
The absence of you does not stop the world, even though it stopped my life dead in it's tracks;
Images of you flicker back and forth in my mind like a view master in my mind;
No happy endings come to me when the sun sets;
You were so primitive yet so evolved;
So human yet so animal;
A perfect being;
I cannot believe you are gone.
