The Weight of Absence

I remember sitting alone

in an empty apartment

listening to Sade’s

Haunt Me

 

Thinking of no one

in particular

just the weight

of absence

how the empty space between

stars

isn’t empty at all

just a quiet vantage point

 

to observe the infinite beauty

of the universe

 

& chart a more 

accurate course

  1. wow that’s really lovely. You are highly insightful. I know the space between as the void, the place from which dreams are woven…thanks for another gem

  2. This is an awesome poem:

    how the empty space between
    stars
    isn’t empty at all
    just a quiet vantage point

    to observe the infinite beauty
    of the universe……

    Lovely!

  3. I want to say I’m totally in love with this poem, Jacque. Totally.

    Hope you’re well! Xoxox
