Eulogy

You weren't even there that day
The shell of you said something kind
But you'd been gone so far away
I can't believe I could be so blind

I fell for all the lines again
The soothing, silky, hypnotize
With not a care for lives in pain
I talked to you and closed my eyes

I dreamed of touches soft and warm
Of magic, passion's frenetic pace
I prayed that once again on my arm
The journey of life we'd face

Infrequent calls reminded me
That you are my addiction
And though I'm smarter than most I see
I can't tell truth from fiction

So here I celebrate that past
With funeral for the lost one
The tears will slowly flow at last
And then I'm finally done
