She Is No Longer
She is no longer here … a vessel bound by frailty or earthly bonds;
She wanders freely through dimensions I cannot see.
She is no longer here to listen to my voice expound on daily triumphs and woes;
She is a part of my mind and knows my muted thoughts.
She is no longer here to touch, feel and comfort my being;
She is the essence of my heart and warms me from within.
She is no longer here by my side to guide the way as we walk;
She is the strength in each of my steps to support me.
She is no longer here awaiting my return;
She is with me always.
She is no longer here;
She is everywhere.
She is no longer;
And yet ...
She lives.
