I WENT BACK TO THE WINDOW by Joanne Boyle

"I WENT BACK TO THE WINDOW"
by Joanne Boyle

I woke up this morning.

they said a new year had begun,

but try telling that to grief,

who is still missing someone.

I looked out of the window,

it was the same view everyday.

A new year couldn't change,

what happened yesterday.

I climbed back in to bed.

I heard voices from outside,

"happy new year" they shouted,

whilst I sat and cried.

Everyday was a beginning,

of the same constant pain,

every minute spent wishing,

that I could see you again.

Time stood still without you,

whilst shadows moved around.

Now and again there was voices,

words without a sound.

I went back to the window,

this time was something new.

I blinked and rubbed my eyes,

and this time I saw you.

We were back to a time of fun,

we were in our happy place,

I rubbed my eyes again,

to wipe my tear stained face.

You looked me in the eye,

it was as if you knew I was there,

and then I heard the music,

and there was dancing everywhere.

I felt my heart start beating,

I hadn't felt it for a while.

I rubbed against the window

and saw my reflection smile.

A moment spent in a vision.

A vision from a time that's past,

A memory relived in my heart,

of a love that will always last.
