Your Absence Makes me Fly

I don’t know why,

your absence makes me fly,

to the world of dreams,

and feel your presence therein.

It is in your absence

that I realize the warmth of your presence,

and so it is your absence

that makes me cherish your presence.

I love you more in your presence

but, in your absence

for the rosy fragrance of your presence,

lingers to blossom in your absence.

It is those delightful moments of your presence

that fill up all dreary moments of your absence,

so I say,trust me and have patience,

for life is just a big ABSENCE.
