Absence
For Terence
If only I could hear
Your voice in the wind -
As the music of the spheres -
Lost in the vast emptiness,
Led astray by the roaring waves.
If only I could feel
Your touch in the sunshine
As it tenderly kisses your lips
While mine remain parted
To await our reunion.
If only the days were moments
That would pass in an instant,
I would spend my life counting
Eternity in every second
Until your return.
