An Absence Of You Poem by S.MICHAEL DOWNS

An Absence Of You



The Morning sun rose over an absence of you.
Every breath shallow and stale.
Every song semmingly sad
every sight altered and askew.
surreal

like a simulation of life
like a stage set but unoccupied.

eighty three years of you on earth
my existense
my sisters
our children
their children

and now, an absense of you.
I miss you mom.
