So suddenly, too soon

"To the one who isn't here..."

You muddle through thoughts
Like waist high floodwaters
Pulling me further
And farther to sea

That glow in her eyes says
“I’m full of surprises”
“Why don’t you try this?”
I still don’t believe

I wait and I wonder
What weather you’re under
Taking me higher
And further from me

Lie still and I’ll whisper
I pray and I wish for
You to return and
Come back here to see

The flowers are blooming
The trees have all grown
The winter is looming
And I’m all alone
