With head on pillow,
I turn and I see
an empty spot
that's meant for you.
Sometimes I can
almost
envision you lying there
next to me
with a smile on your lips
as warm as sunshine.
Reaching to touch you
but you're gone,
my hand finding
nothing but empty air.
Turning again in anguish
all I can see
is a cold blank wall
of eternity
staring back at me.
