Something Missing

 

I was about to crawl into bed

And watch some television

When I remembered that I had not written here

I found this coloring page saved in my photos

And realized this empty row boat depicts

How I feel with Jim not here

The world is still beautiful

And nature shines

But something is missing

So I will go watch television

And in the night

I will hear Jim breathing

It happens quite often

When you have rowed with someone so long

It’s hard to row alone

They are always with you

Even when miles away.
