Like raindrops cold on frozen stone,
Your absence chills me to the bone.
I speak at night, my words intoned,
Each breath a weight I bear alone.
We laughed beneath the silver skies,
Not knowing it would be the end.
Now every star above me cries,
For all my messages left unsent.
Who knew that smile would be the last?
That your big wish would soon come true?
The future faded to the past.
Now every night, I think of you.
No time to speak a last goodbye,
No chance to guide you through the pain.
I watch the petals as they fly,
And pray they bring you back with rain.
