At the moment I feel in control
When the eyes have finally dried
As I go to bed in peace
Just when I think all is well
Tears stream without a clue
A form fades far in the distance
Looking uncannily like you while
Hurriedly walking on his toes
Just when I think all is lost
Memories say it is not so
When I text the young ones
I say "whare" not "where"
Emulating the biggest goof
Just when it is impossible to smile
Mercifully your humor forces me to
Bewildering loss of opportunities
Places we shall never visit
Precious time looted from us
Just when misery sets in
I am relieved you are at peace
I am mad at the god that stole you
Before I was ready to let you go
Anger and sadness befuddle me
Just then a breeze blows my hair
Tousling it into unruly curls
I hated when you did that
Now you are in the winds
I wish you could come back
To hug and hold me while
Quietly poking me in the neck
💕
