I'Ll Be Right Here

When the last snow is
But a memory
And
Daffodils push through
Once trampled sod.

Right here,
Looking through a lace curtain
Veil
Dampened by my tears,
Because I am standing too close to
The edge of your absence.

You left forgetting to say good-bye,
So I'll be right here
When you return,
As you must!
Right here,
To tell you face to face
I don't care any more!
