Living my day as it is,

With and without you.

Trying to hide how I miss,

The way you do what you do.

Hallways empty of your smile,

And days unfilled with your laugh,

For you're away a hundred miles,

And all I have left is a photograph.

Each of them having a story to tell,

Singing its very own special tune.

Remembering the day I first fell,

For you in that cherished afternoon.

Everything changed by then,

You became my whole universe.

I couldn't even recall why and when,

All of this turned into a disrupting curse.

I write now because you are away,

We were everything and we were not.

And as much as I want to stay,

It's nearly impossible to untie this knot.

But, I'll see you again. Maybe in a long lost afternoon, catching each other's eye. Maybe we'll give it another shot. Maybe we'll become the universe again, no one knows.
