i look for him

the night falls upon me like nothing i have ever known.
silvery threads of cold twist in the air,
these clouds drift like smoke.

{i caught a glimpse of y o u}

he walked along these old roots like memories.
your voice drifting to and fro in the air,
reminders of those younger days.

i look for him, you know.
in the reflections of dark dirt in puddles.
he will never be gone to me. hearts don't let go like that.

{where are you now?}

so i sink into the blue velvet night
until my sorrows turn cerulean
until they fade.

fresh spring days with the babe.
