Poem- But Still, I know.

I feel a tugging at my heart.
A darkness in my spirit.
But still, I know you’re there.

I look for you.
Search everywhere.
But still, I do not see you.

I reach for you.
Feel around.
But still, I can not touch you.

I shout for you.
Cry out your name.
But still, you do not answer.

I close my eyes,
Hush my words.
But still, I can not hear you.

I feel a tugging at my heart.
A darkness in my spirit.
But still, I know you’re there.

      I’ve always believed and have seen that there can be beauty and happiness in tragic moments. To know someone, anyone, is with you in spirt when you’re feeling down is important to remember 🙂
