constant reminder

a pair of eyes
no one will look closer
noticing he might not be there
sadness can build thick walls
and the heart can choke on itself
he becomes the clouds
passing fast in front of the sun
the light will reflect in his eyes
again will anyone look closer
days get longer and chances increase
for more sun exposure
but the cold air could keep him back
attached to that warmth he misses
all the other necessary things are there
is no difference aside from the obviously
obstructed affection he is afflicted with
having toward that bright spot he found
no longer shining this way he needs to find
another way to enjoy the things he felt he shared
and it will be only a memory in years
just have to find that thicker skin
and it will insulate against the cold all around
meditating profusely on what he may never know
sadly clouds still hang in the way at the moment
anticipating the absorbing he will need to catch up…
