You...

I touched your hair, but didn't feel your warmth.
I said goodbye, but your ears didn't hear me.
I cried out for you, but you were far, far away.
Ani couldn't say goodbye, and I am sorry for that, for both of you.
I wish I could be shown a glimpse of you now, shining, loving.
I've been thinking of you a lot over the past couple days.
I need to cry sometimes, and I do.
I don't need to cry to remember that I love you, it's impossible for me to forget.
I need to cry, as an action.
As an expression.
As an earthly reminder that you are elsewhere, and I want to be with you.
Just as my voice aches to say your name, my soul requires me to cry to somehow connect with you.
