lately it is not much of a question
when they ask me where I have been
usually the answer is the same as theirs
either spoken with a chuckle or a solemn tone
our eyes gaze longingly thorough the window panes
for once now all human minds have one thought in unison
that if the world will be forever changed once we enter it again
it is time to cherish these moments while we are stuck in nowhere

how can I continue functioning
as I am not whole anymore
the ever essential piece
my heart’s only purpose
is apart from me
now I can barely move
for it pains me so
in my bones I can feel it
the strickening absence of you
and how you’re missing me too
tu me manques (French)- you are missing from me

there was no last word
just there and then gone
summer became winter
but the leaves didn’t change
a single contrary word
and our lives whisked away
clouds barely covering the sun
before the storm tore up everything
days became less recognizable
every night seemed everlasting
yet there must still be love
my last beacon, I hoped
it went up and they watched
but nothing came my way
the cold became unbearable
spring was nowhere in sight
as they left without warning
