out of reach

I hate you for being selfishly selfless.
I can never reciprocate your kindness.
I'm thankful for your shared happiness.
Lost, you found me and our madness.

I stare at the night sky, dark,
starless, bleak and cold.
Across the infinite void,
I reach for your hand to hold.

To your whims I am helpless,
And all I can do is fold.
It will take some time
but I will do as I'm told.

Darkness surrounds me,
your voice is my guide.
I see you and your smile,
cheering by my side.

Wind in my sails,
I wait for my time and tide.
Your love makes me soar,
I fly high, I glide.

To share your vibrant beauty,
your wonderful colors.
I see you in every cloud,
the majesty of the great outdoors.

By the campfire,
I make you some s'mores.
I search for you,
but we're on different floors.

Each and every day,
I remind myself that you're gone.
Each and every way,
I remember that you are my Sun.

Today, I almost accepted
why you had to go away.
Tomorrow, I may understand
why you couldn't stay.
