Nella mia Faccia

sitting upon a fence  
gazing out from sorrowed eyes  
feeling downcast, somewhat bent  
no answer to the why’s  
 
i see your face  
your smile a grace  
left to help me feel  
to prop me up  
renew my hope  
to stop me falling  
beneath some wheel  
 
words and sounds  
that I repeat are  
empty of the pain  
that is 'missing you'  
but yet I voice them  
to the air  
on some prayer  
they might find you  
 
from on this fence  
i regard the sun  
dropping slowing in the sky  
the wind picks up
and stirs the air  
bringing dust drops to my eye  
 
if there be a god  
they say see it in the wind  
if it does not drive you mad  
it might just leave you blind  
 
no voice answers within this space  
alone the wind caresses my face
