When you're not around..

Another lonely day. Mind you, these aren't too common. Most times I'm alone, but not lonely.

When the place I saved you stays vacant,

When I don't see you riding over the horizon,

When I must walk that walk alone,

I know why I belong to only me.

 

When I pass the flower that reminds me of you,

When I sit by the tree we had planted together,

When I see it now uprooted, withered and dead,

I get reminded of why I belong to only me.

 

When my head turns every now and again,

When I find my eyes desperately seeking yours,

When the aloneness turns to lonesomeness,

I belong to me, and only me.

Alone but surely not lonely. When everyone seems to have left you and all you have left is memories ...remember that is is YOU that pulls you through the storm. End the end...it's always about YOU. Great poem.
