Waves Of You
They crash over me when I least expect it,
When the water has been so calm and still.
Not a ripple of you in my thoughts for days,
Not a whisper of you in the wind; until
The weight of you suddenly hits me.
A full force of grief knocks me for six.
I’m reminded of all the love I have for you
And see all the problems we couldn’t fix.
Because although I kid myself and think
That you’ve been erased from my life completely,
In these moments I know without a doubt
You’re a part of my heartbroken history.
