I dreamed about you last night
you came to me
as if you never left
my mortal world.
I saw you laughing
I saw you smile
I sat quietly aside
to watch you be you.
Whenever you could
you brought all of you to me
but it was just as much fun
to see all of you be you.
I cannot tell you what
you said to me or others
I just squinted my mental eyes
and listened to your soul.
But I woke up this morning
and you are gone
and again I remember that
empty wound inside.
I know you would have liked
me enjoying the rain
it cleanses my face and
reveals the soul inside.
I never got to say
how much I will miss you
I never would dwell on
what wasn't today.
But I do.
I miss you.
Too much.
