How bittersweet
it is to know that
little pieces of my heart
have been scattered
throughout this world
and into the next.
Taken to cities
I will never visit,
sleeping under stars
I will never see,
and waking up
to sleepy love crusted eyes
that will never again
gaze into my own.

Thank you, Rob. It hit me yesterday when I was vacuuming, of all things, and I honestly think this little tiny thing is one of my favourites. Funny where inspiration comes from, isn’t it?
