Hollow spaces

the gentle touch 
of your hand 
and the warmth 
of your embrace
still lingers upon my skin 
like phantom whispers
haunting the hollow spaces 
that still live within 
I close my eyes and surrender 
to the tide of emotions 
that wash over me 
as I long for your voice 
to dance upon my ears once more

time a relentless thief
has taken you away
and what we once shared
echoes in the silence 
of the tears I cry

until we meet again
I’ll hold on to
to those small pieces 
of your memory
and pray the universe
will answer my silent plea
