What You Leave Behind

What you leave behind

I find myself
Bathed in your warmth,
Tended by your lips.

I find myself
Excited by your smile,
Cradled in your hands.

I find myself
Lulled by our dreams,
Singing with your laughter.

I find myself
Exhausted with your passion,
Concerned for your need.

I find myself
Chasing your nightmares,
Holding you down.

I find myself
Afraid of answers,
Confronting your denials.

I find myself
Staring at the empty spaces,
Shedding tears for memories.

I find myself
On a new journey,
But I don’t find you.
