Crystalline (Acrostic)

Captivated by the silence
Remembering the touch of your voice
Your echo still somehow lingers here
Sun rose without your eyes
Tracing the edges of your photograph
All your dreams will
Live on without knowing who you are
Living pieces of you, missing your arms
It's not such a leap of faith, knowing you're where you belong, though it
Never makes saying goodbye any
Easier - now you're just a constellation in my heart
