What it Was ©

All there is 

is what it was

for this moment

finds its roots in the past

and now the rain is absent

dryness is all around.

All there is

is what it was

for the present

finds itself standing still

longing for the essence

wanting to turn around.

All there is

is what it was

and between my left and my right arm:

not a hug, none of the warmth

just the emptiness

that you have left behind.
