When I am Gone


When I’m gone…..Maybe for weeks, months, or even forever—

I can’t say; We never truly know what the universe has planned.

But I want you to know that you were my universe.

You will feel me through the stars that light up your night, the waves that kiss the shore, and the winds that whisper through the trees.

Feel my kisses like the ocean’s tide, rising and falling against your shore.

Feel my touch like the earth beneath your feet, steady and grounding. Know that I am there, holding you, gently kissing you, as if I’ve never left.

Hear my laughter in the wind that whispers through the trees, catch my giggles in the rustle of leaves and the sway of the grass.

See me in every cloud that drifts across the sky, in every moment you miss me, in every thought that reaches for me.

Long for me—crave my embrace like the horizon craves the sunshine. Yearn for my scent like the rain-soaked earth after a storm.

Feel me everywhere, always: in the breath of the wind, in the depths of the ocean, in the vast expanse of the sky.

Let my name fall from your lips with every breeze that caresses your skin.

Let my presence be your constant, as you are mine, every day, in every waking moment.

Will you?

Will you long for me as I longed for you? Will you love me as I loved you? Will I be your universe as you were mine?

          Means a lot… 🫶
          It’s kind of a booster to keep at it when there are readers who engage with each other’s art.
