I sit here in the stillness
Writing you poetry you will never read
Hearing your voice through the quiet
Like a long missed storm
Imagining your breath on my neck
As if you had actually been near
Saying to the emptiness
'I miss you so much'
As the sky does to the sun
Feeling the
seas rise from my feet
Swelling through my body
And raining down from my mind
I sit here in the stillness
Writing you poetry you will never read
Me te aroha nui
