Not a day goes by that you’ve lost your light
In my eyes, in our lives The ceremonious reflection upon your remaining essence As it’s left behind In picture frames, the photos In written words shared amongst us Passing these notes around lest people forget the prose A tattoo, a stain The residual of the drug that remains Trapped silently in my spine To one day remind of the time I tried to lose my mind I thought maybe I’d see you there With the ghosts and visions and misinterpretation I went down a rabbit hole looking for you All I found was shape with rhythm Color with intention Sounds moving like imprisonment Trapped, I watched and waited to see your face Your remaining essence making it’s appearance Ethereal emphasis on blissful impression Trying to fill a sullen void with extraterrestrial invention Cosmos flew by as I searched my mind Wandering through the ether blindly The third eye closed wide, invisible as the light There was everything and nothing Everything except you, nothing but me And on this plane of existence, for the first time I felt truly …alone… And I knew you were gone forever It’s been quite some time since that day And not a day goes by that you’ve lost your light In my eyes, in our lives But maybe this isn’t the answer So I’ve stopped looking for you I couldn’t find you through the woods, past the rivers In the clouds or beneath the ground In the depths of my mind, beyond the edge of time You’re not there anymore But when I think about you, I feel what you were Something of you still hangs on Perhaps somewhere in the heart And when I remember your words They speak to my soul as you would In the way only you could You are gone forever from this world But something of you still hangs on And to me You’ll never lose your light
