You Are Always There Poem by Dom Hunt

You are always there
Even though you are gone
Whispers in my mind
Saying things never said 
I don't want to hear your voice
But it follows me
Like a drum softly beating
It is a rhythm of my life
I don't want to see your face
But as I close my eyes 
It's there
Still beautiful but painful
It only brings sorrow now
Even your smile
Like sunshine
Clouds my day 
Dreams are nightmares
For there is no escape
You are dancing
 On the fringes of my mind
I wake to find you
Far away I drift
Day or night
There is no place to hide
You are always there
