When you are away


In the morning when I feel my body starting to wake,
I keep my eyes closed and whisper your name.
My hand moves to the pillow where your head would lay.
My leg searches for you only to find an empty space.
Slowly my body rolls to where your body should wait.
I open my eyes and whisper your name.
I start my day alone because you are away.
