A Poem by Mel Carrington
"

dedicated for a dear friend

"
today i am uneasy,
because there is an absence of you,
and it isn't very easy to say and i'm trying to think of everything,
other than the distinct lack of you,

it seems that when it matters,
i came in too late,
right now you're still here,
but that's just today,
what about tomorrow?
or the next day?
the day after, the week after, the month after, what then?
you'll be gone and i'll still be here with far too much to say,
far too late,

today i am uneasy,
today the world is gray,
today i'm sitting here writing words i'm too scared to say because i'm worried they might be true tomorrow or the day after,
if not today,
