Now That You're Gone
I miss you like
a hot Autumn day
misses the sweet
breath of the wind.
I miss you like
a frozen February
misses the warmth
of the hidden sun.
I miss you like
an old woman
misses the days
of busy children.
I miss you like
a heartbroken toddler
misses the joys
of his broken toy.
I miss you like
a lost girl trying
to find her way
without you by her side.
