You, SV. 21

You

I have laughed before but never so as with you

I have cried before but never so much as for you

I have loved before but with you love was real.

I have been lonely and though you leave me, you'll always be there

I have reached out before but never been touched by one such as you.

You have left me empty because I'm full of you.

My body walks alone because my mind is with you.

You are you and no one else can take your place

When you are gone what's left is just space.
