Linger

Linger

 

Just because you cannot see me

does not mean I’m nowhere near

and

just because you cannot feel me

does not mean I’m less than real

I am not

gone, I need to linger

just to check that nothing’s wrong

I never

told you I might be leaving

I just could not find the right words

to place

inside this mourning song for

safe keeping, until this whole affair

is  over

and I am well and truly done .. x

How soft and beautifully spoken are these words. Lingering like a favourite perfume.

An interesting poem, and I like it. The problem is, I don't know why (?) I'll have to read it again, and again, and again, --- :)

True, very very true, let it be for the passed ones or those who are still living in this world with us, energy doesn't die.. or lie :>
