“Are you still there?”

There you are in the sunset

Painting the world with your colors

Just like an artist painting on a canvas


Your soul paints the sky

Leaving behind the memory of you

Reminding us that you’re still there 

Far 

but not too far 

Just out of reach


I look for you in my everyday life

Small reminders here and there

Hope

Reassurance

That you're still guiding me,

Even though I can’t see you anymore

Or talk through things


But you're still here 

I hope

This poem is about losing someone who is close to me but knowing that they are still there even though I can't seem them.
