Hello,

My friend,

How close you have been

of late.

 

I know

You are

An inseparable companion

From the womb.

 

I admit,

I’ve ignored you

In the busy bustle

Of living.

 

My path

However

Diverse its way has

But one earthy end.

 

Constant,

Softly, I hear

Your following footsteps

Everywhere I tread.

 

Stillness

Almost inaudible

Your breath rhythmic

So near.

 

Remember,

Don’t forget,

Whispering your voice said,

I’m always here.
