i see you in the moon

I see you in the moon, in the fireflies of July
In the azure horizon from the edge of dry land
And the magic of every nighttime sky

I feel you in each raindrop faintly stinging my skin
In every unexpected breeze which induces a shiver
I tremble, without and within

I hear you in the quiet of lonesome, sleep-starved nights
In the radio in verses surely written for us two
In yesterday’s siren song which ceases to be quiet

I see you in all the splendor of this world
I feel you tingle my senses
I hear you whisper to my soul
Letting me know you are near
With a tender hello
A sweet remember when
As my arms reach out to touch you
You are gone again

But I smile through the emptiness
Shake my head and grin through my despair
Grateful for each memento
For the time and the love we shared
