Departure
DEPARTURE
by
JOHN M. ARRIBAS
YOUR DEPARTURE WAS SILENT NEVER WHISPERING ADIEU
A WORTHLESS EXISTENCE WITHOUT THE PRESENCE OF YOU
BEING WITHOUT YOU WAS NEVER A CONSCIOUS THOUGHT
THAT PAINFUL LESSON OF ABSENCE IS NOW BEING TAUGHT
I CRADLE MY PILLOW PRETENDING ITS YOU
GOING ON ALONE IS SOMETHING I’M NOT WILLING TO DO
LONELINESS IS TORTURE RUSH THE DAY BE IT NOT FAR
I WILL SOON JOIN YOU WHEREVER YOU ARE
