Moments

I counted the days
you were here
and it was only 3 months more
than her - 

29 years just the same
and never enough either way. 

I don't know
why you had to leave
or where you went
but I hope
I'll see you again.
If not in this life,
in the next.

Two of my favorite souls
slipped through my fingers
like the wind,
wispy sighs no one
can touch
or hold.

I imagine
every whisk and whirl
is your arms
wrapping around
my shoulders
like all the hugs
I'll never have again. 

And for a moment,
a breath,
there is nothing but love.
