Moment by Moment

Freeverse

Where is the opportunity
to say the things I wish to say?
You are not here of course
though I pretend that you are.

I see a shadow on the wall.
It moves as the sun moves by:
movement by movement by moment;
moment by moment of movement.

The movement is the company of the moment
as I see a face that is that shadow.
It draws my attention daily.
The company of the moment of the movement.

Someone is missing. They are the shadow on the wall and they are taking up quite a few moments. Lovely piece Andrew. Reflective and relatable. Oh to be able to converse with our missing.
