I saw you today

Not with my eyes, with my mind

I hugged you today

Not with my arms, with my heart

I heard you whisper "Mom"

Not in my ears, through the wind

My ears hear the thunder crack

My heart feels the impact

My mind knows, but will never understand

That you decided to go

My heart refuses

To believe it was so

I saw you today

Not with my eyes, with my mind

I hugged you today

Not with my arms, with my heart

I told you I love you today

Not in words...with longing
