Your Presence In The Past Poem by Jim Mascia

Your Presence In The Past



I cried last Christmas for you.
I knew it was the last.
All alone in this room.
Your presence in the past.
We only got a taste of it.
Didn't open all the way.
Now the pain is a weight
on my heart to stay.
The decorations don't hang here.
If they did the pain would be severe.
Wonder what you're doing
This time of year.
