Tag: Eternity

Let not the words of my silence
engulf you with thoughts
that I am gone—

I am here

Despite the absence
of the warmth of my palms
upon your face

I am here—

Though my song is only
palpable in the coolness
of the summer breeze,
caught in the scent
of flowering meadows

I am here

Through the stealthy moments
while the verdant
leaves turn
from emerald to garnet,
topaz to platinum,
silver to earthen dust—

I am here,
I am always here.
