Every time I approach
Always so quietly
I dare not surprise you
Let you realize that you are a phantom
Every time I call you
Always so carefully
Don’t let loneliness hear
Laugh at me with a gentle voice
Every time I leave
It’s always so gently
I dare not wake you up
Let you wake up in me In the dream
Every time I wait for you
Always so quietly
Don’t let time know
Comfort me with no words
I miss you one day at a time
Building a lonely house
I am going up and downstairs, opening and closing doors
Looking through the drawers for your name
Every day I miss you
From the day you looked back and left
My diary is turned into poetry
Finding your name behind the poem
The feeling of thinking about you
As lingering as the rain
Wetting my years
But I still don’t know it
Thinking of you
