He came easy
Sounds kind of dirty when said like that
But it isn’t
He came into my life easily
Slid in on an afterthought
Not a momentous moment
I didn’t hear bells
Or a symphony
He was just suddenly there
Important only when I thought about it
And I didn’t too often
I took his presence for granted
He was just there
Until suddenly
He wasn’t

Yes, it's a tricky opening (but no Dicky). Nice job. Thanks for sharing it.

I think the best writing is uncomplicated and straight forward while capturing a truth of feeling. You've done that here. Excellent work.

Magical writing...in so few lines you have managed to present what emotions rise after one is no longer there.

Sometimes those we love, or thought we loved are very transparent. Although other times you don't realize what you got until it's gone.
