One Year
A final day, in my life here
So many passed, day and night
Blending, passing unnoticed
until the end.
Everyday I'd pass you
with a friendly smile
or a wave
nothing to it, no complexity
A series of moments
all that life is
series of moments
some will stay, some are lost
what stays, your smile
your face, your eyes
the deep, mysterious tone of your voice
what gets lost, your anger
some times despair, misery
My own despair joins yours
when you ache I ache
when you cry, I cry
but unknowingly
the feeling comes to me
as the year draws to a close
on the summer day of July
I realise my wasted time
my feelings awakening
as I leave those school gates
I realise my life without you
will be...
