Time To Go

The air is heavy in the room tonight.

Standing here looking upon the absence that used to be me.

Tears stream down my face, though never touch the floor.

Realization opens with a silent primal scream.

Mind races, searching for answers to the unknown.

Trying to bring rational to the uncomfortable truth.

Gravity sets in of all the things unsaid.

Forgotten dreams, lost opportunities and misspent youth.

I can only hope that I did enough with the time given.

The moments shared truly let you know.

One last fleeting kiss upon the wind.

Hand touches my shoulder and like that, it’s time to go.
