The Absence (Contrail)

You set out in life 

Trying to find yourself

And you find yourself lonely

What’s missing?

You live though the strife

So you’ve gone through life without 

A real love

That moment you finally fall in love

Hold on to it, as it never lasts 

Remember how it feels 

Like a rocket in the sky thats gone

The contrail, also fades away 

Remember how it looks

The absence of it all

Makes me remember how much I miss it

That moment you finally fall in love

Just relish it, as it comes to pass 

Enjoy just how it feels

Eventually it ends and it’s done

A contrail, that has blown away

Another will come along 

The absence of it all

Makes me remember how much I miss it

Across a blue sky

A sliver of white

Disproving the absence 

There’s always one out there

A new contrail to appear and fade

Still proving the absence 

You came and went and faded away

My contrail,  that dissipated 

May I find love in your wake 

The absence of it all

Makes me remember how much I miss it
