No You

No day, no night, no you

No joy, no light, no dawn, no dusk

No pleasure taken, no solace to be found

No sharing, no comfort, no warm embrace 

You slipped away peacefully and left us behind, a clock silenced, its second hand stopped in mid-flight 

The pain of your loss softened by the gifts you gave, the lightness you radiated, the beauty of your ever gentle soul

All the roads we traveled, all the roads we walked, all the journeys we took.

Still, nothing remains; no day, no night, no you
