Always, never
I’ll always be near you
but never to touch
Always just beneath your feet
Just never rolling in the grass
Always somewhere in the walls
Or another room
But never home
You looked everywhere but knew I was gone, you ran from the desperation
But knew it would just follow
You can almost smell the softness of my hair
If you listen you might hear me giggle
Feel me squirmming to get away but stay close under your tickling fingers, wrapped in your arms
My little arms squeezing you tighter than any hug
Always alive in your memory and dreams. In a photo, a crayon picture
Just never there when you come home, or at the school gate, or waiting for my toast
I miss you mummy
Always
Never
