"WITHOUT YOU"
by Donna Ashworth
After all the firsts without you
which came in like wrecking balls
I exhausted my memories of our lasts too
and felt as though a new grief had appeared
no more of these milestones left
I thought the now must be without you
until I felt your smile
felt it warm my skin
as your song played out on the radio
and then that proud moment
the one I thought I’d never see
you were there at my shoulder
I knew it
when hard decisions arise
somehow your advice appears
as though you planted it inside me
before you left…
so here I am
greeting the robins you send me
counting the feathers you drop
and the rainbows you draw
realising
there is a new chapter of us
we are not done
it’s different
but it is something
and until we meet again
I will make it enough.
