Everything Except You

Slow and steady

Outside of my window

The traffic roars a lonesome call

~

Soft and quiet

Tapping at my window

The rain falls like tears from heaven 

~

Long drawn out breaths

The clock pounding like a gong

Reminding me you aren’t here

~

Far and away

I hear your words

They ring like a church bell at midnight

~

Darkness consuming the light

No moon rests in the sky

I am lost in a sea of thought

~

Wondering

Pondering

Second guessing

~

Everything 

Except 

You
