When sun rays shine through the cloudy skies
I see your smile
That beaming smile
The one that radiates warmth and kindness wherever it encounters a lost soul,
shattered dreams, a broken heart.
The touch of your hand on a shoulder, a joke, a laugh
The comforting look in your eyes
Giving hope to the hopeless
Here in this place my heart breaks with the knowledge
Some souls are not meant to stay
Merely passing through time
You exist to offer this world a moment's grace
To lighten the burden of difficult days and long nights
Making sense of the maddness that is life
Making life out of the maddness
Easily, effortlessly
Suddenly I blink and what once was seems lost
But every now and then the universe blinks a bit too long
And when it does I can see what remains in the space in between
What remains is you
Forever young, always beautiful,
You.
