Emptiness

You’re gone now.. no longer lying on my bed..

The softness of your hair.. the way it falls about your head..  

No more gentle sighs.. I find I’m missing you already..

Soothing sounds of breathing.. comforting and steady..

I find my mind wanders more each day.. now that you’re gone..

Nights are filled with restless sleep.. lasts ‘til morning’s dawn..

Lonely hours and empty days.. I find that I’m missing you..

Lost and listless all the time.. I miss the Ex’s Shih Tzu..
