When?

Summary:

A short poem i wrote about Paul not being able to move on from John.

Work Text:

When the door shuts
And the room goes quiet
Your voice stays in the air
And i am left to ponder

When your face is forgotten
And everyone moves on
Your presence stays beside me
In my own mind

When i call out your name
And nothing answers back
I'll still wait for your voice
As if you might reply

When your voice fades from the air
And silence learns your shape
I still turn my head
As if you had called my name

When the days grow distant
And time erases your trace
My hands remember yours
In ways my mind can’t replace

When everything finally lets you go
I won’t.
