Seemingly

intermittently 
when shadows
undulate
on walls
i see you
reaching out
as if trying
to comfort me
in these
moments
i miss you
most

nights
seem
as long
as the years
passing by
without you

in a plashet
of tears
i lie here
motionless
as the shadows
fade out
like life

seemingly
i am alone
again

My heart breaks for you my friend as I read these wonderfully crafted words on the sorrow that you feel in your heart. Here is hoping your smile returns soon and the pain becomes a dull ache with time. Loved this Sandy.
