Still Gone

I’ll be okay, eventually
I just need time; just a few minutes a day
For the rest of my life
Remembering you, missing you, still loving you
Mere moments in time that will last forever
Miles away or separated by death
You are always here in my heart
I sleep restlessly, seeing you in my dreams
I can see you, feel you, hear your voice
My mind doesn’t remember you are gone
I am fooled into thinking you are really here
Daylight brings a lack of sleep
The loss of you
True darkness once again
I’ll be okay, eventually
I just need time; a few minutes a day
For the rest of my life
