Its Been Awhile Poem by Jonathan McWilliams

It’s been awhile since I’ve cried
Since a storm has dwelled deep inside
Years now since I’ve thought of you
Your memory brings a tear or two
Can it be that I’ve moved on?
Have I accepted truth that you’re gone?
I wonder what I have suppressed
Crack my mind and then undress
The thoughts I hide the emotions cloaked
I used to lie on pillows soaked
With tears that stem from sorrows shroud
Hoping you looked down from clouds
But I know the scoop you won’t come back
Without your guidance I keep on track
Been so long fact turns to lore
Sorrow so heavy can’t carry it no more
