Watching

Staring out the window,
Snow falls on the grass,
Wind sweeps it away;
This bleak day won't pass.

You haunted me today,
Every second breathed,
Like you do every day,
And I silently screamed.

Thinking of you,
Time waits forever,
Until my heart aches,
With a need forlorn.

So alone and lost,
No consolation
For one soul lost in you
When you are gone.

Careening out of control,
The circumstances are
Beyond my reasoning;
And I hate my fear.

Grind my teeth in anger,
Hold my head in despair,
Cry a thousand laments,
Wanting you right here.

Tears slowly fall
To collect with others,
Shed for this loss,
Defiant to my will.

And you stand outside,
Amid the snow swirl,
Watching me watching,
Blind to how deep I care.
