Someone Distant

Often when I close my eyes

I see your lovely face

And your lively eyes.

A splash of colors

That shine different in light.

Yet there is more than that,

More than the surface.

A deep ocean lies behind this beautiful facade,

That awaits to be explored.

Only the kindest words dripped from your lips

Your voice so tender, such a blessing,

And It would be amiss to say

That it doesn't echo in my head.

You brought sunlight to the room

And dispelled any gloom.

Your laughter so contagious

And your smile, so precious.

How much sorrow it produced

Of having to let you go.

And how much it consoled me to know,

That all these cherished memories

Are branded in my soul.
