The space beside

 
I want to tell you of the blueness of sky
and the sound of geese flying over today
and that scene in a movie that made me cry
and the beautiful song that blew me away

I want to carry you around all day
in the pocket closest to my heart
so we can just laugh and talk and play
and not feel always so far apart

Instead there’s an empty space beside me
I carry it everywhere I roam
I’m complete; it’s not a hole inside me
I just long for connection that feels like home
