Never Know

I think you’d be surprised To see your picture on my phone. To know that you mean more to me Than I had ever shown, To believe what you’d suspected About how you made me feel: Seen - in a world of people, who Don’t even know I’m real. I think the way light travels, Spanning space and time, Is the best way to articulate How we resonate in my mind: Although it’s not apparent Now - I feel the warmth, so vast As the rays of light burn brightly From our spirits in the past. Like a ghost who knows no boundaries, Like footprints hidden by snow, The echo of your voice remains: Nowhere - except where I go. I’m left to ponder what you’d say, About all that I can see. It’s only then I am aware of How - you’re now a part of me. © pennomoly
