THE DAY MY SENSES CEMENTED IN TIME

What my eyes see, 
when my mind plays, 
one of media’s endless loop.

When my ears hear, 
screaming jets race, 
through Tuesday, 
morning’s cobalt blue sky. 

I feel your touch, 
with each gentle breeze, 
blowing through my window.

I taste our lips, 
when we kissed 
our last good-bye, 
before you left home.

I still smell you, 
with a slight scent 
of your most recent 
favorite fragrance.

My kitchen’s scents, 
reminds me of cooking, 
your favorite meal, 
not knowing it was, 
our one last meal together.

How my salty tears 
still linger in my throat 
everytime I think of you. 

How my heart aches, 
for the nostalgic memories, 
from distant times.

My mind wanders, 
piecing together puzzles, 
of fragmented memories.

I still hear you, 
from your hearty laugh, 
to your final “I love you.” 
I remain lost, 
without hearing your footsteps, 
and having the same ones 
follow me home. 

Staring at our photographs, 
as memories frozen in time, 
of all the moments shared together, 
brings smiles to my day’s sadness. 

I know your waiting, 
for the day, 
when in God’s time 
we will reunite, 
once again, 
in heaven’s garden.
