Now that He is gone

Now that he is gone,
I have to find,
something new for one,
To occupy my time

My days become so long,
I watch the time constantly,
Either by writing a poem or a song,
This will help me hopefully

Missing him is one thing,
Not being able to be together,
Having painful feelings lingering,
Is just another.

I wonder what he is doing,
wonder if he is alright,
Hoping it is me he is missing,
whenever it comes close to night

I have never had such a feeling,
Never have I so much missed anyone,
I can now understand the meaning,
Now that he is gone.
