Chasing the essence of you

An acrostic poem about the silent nights that come with mourning.

By Rae JanneyPublished 2 years ago 1 min read

Sometimes

I

Listen for an

Echo of your voice.

Night fades to day, and I can only hold onto your pillow,

Clinging to the memories and the

Essence of you.
