Streams
of tears redden your eyes and stain the cheeks I used to stroke.
Sobs
pulse through your tender breast and quiver outwards through the
lips I'll kiss no more.
You haven't brushed your hair.
You
won't wave me off to work today,
knowing I cannot be there with
you ever again to hold you tight and close.
Learn
to live again.
I know it won't be easy.
I can feel your pain
but
breathe this air.
Look up at Jupiter and Mars.
I am not gone
but I have changed.
I'm in the space between the stars.
Reminded
by your howls of grief how you loved me beyond my belief,
privileged
was I to share with you a love so wide and full as this.
Who
can know tomorrow's ways?
but we shall keep you in our gaze.
Biting
winds and rainy days continue but remember all this too shall pass.
Learn
to live again.
I know it won't be easy.
I can feel your pain
but
breathe this air.
Look up at Jupiter and Mars.
I am not gone
but I have changed.
I'm in the space between the stars.
Wave
me off for you've got work to do.
My sun has set but yours shall
rise again for you
and when night comes, let it take you outside
your bars
and when you sleep you'll see me there
in the space
between the stars
