Author's Note: This poem is a more dramatic-well like crazy dramatic- version of what I feel about my sister being in college. I do miss her when she is away, and I love the moments when we can just talk and laugh again when she is home and forget about how she is almost a senior in college. I hope you enjoy it!
Peace fills my mind
Bubbling, leaking in the cracks
Tossing away the despair,
The Longing
The Regret
Seems so easy
Your absence was forgotten
Now that your absence is no more
Back into our lives
In our sight-
Not in our cell phones
We go to sleep knowing
Tomorrow you are there
Your absence seems impossible
Now that your absence is no more
The day all of us fear
Cannot disappear
So it comes, as we knew it would
The footsteps you take
As you exit the room
Are the last we will see
For what seems like eternity
Your absence is remembered
Now that your presence is no more
