Barely Remembered Times

Wind blowing softly though my hair
Playing with it just like you used to
You've been gone for so long
And yet I still think of you
As I sit on top of a grassy hill
And look out across the park
Trying to feel your presence in the air
While the silence presses upon me
Painfully reminding me
That you're still not there
And never will be again in this life
I find myself thinking back to those times
The ones I can barely remember
Because I was so young of age
When you were there in our lives
And we were a whole family
Going through life's struggles together
And I realize how much I miss you
Even as your face in my memory
Slowly slips away into a blur
