Against All Thoughts

When i said we put that distance between us
because i had issues i needed resolved
it must have come out all wrong
so you took the road to fade
and it was all too familiar
it was something i've been thinking
shouldn't happen
can't happen
but again
its happening
against all thoughts.

Chasing the Skyline

When I looked up you were gone

The silver lining had turned a cold gray

And I sat there gazing at the emptiness that you left

Wishing I had one last moment before your exit

Some of these days I look out the window

Expecting you to come through that door

Surrounded by the halo that you stole from the clouds

Shining into my life again

Most times the reality overwhelms me

And I face those clouds whilst kissing you

Goodbye

No one said it would be easy

Yet no one said it would be this hard

I scavenge my thoughts and memories

Trying as hard as I can not to lose the details

These details that define me through you

Intricacies that only a father could know of his daughter

And I keep them locked away

Safe from the reach of forgetfulness

Only my heart knows the void it feels

And I fall short trying to describe it

Yet at times this void is

Filled

With my conceding that I’ve lived my life

Through yours

Fulfilled.

For Rahma, for your Dad.
