I am told I can easily step into someone elses shoes and write. That is what this poem is.




I trace your soft and tender face
With caloused fingertips
And in my mind I still can taste
The sweetness of your lips

The way you smiled back at me
Still lingers in my mind
As I think backwards to the days
When you were here, and mine

You said there was a part of you
That you still need to find
And regardless what I had to say
I couldn’t change your mind

I pray that when you come across
This missing piece of you
It brings you back home, here to me
Where we can start anew

But until your journey ends
And your searching comes to pass
I’ll trace your soft and tender face
Through this pane of glass

Jack Roberts – March 29, 2004
