Here
by Gabe Redel
This place is home.
I need to stay in it.
I’m comfortable here
and I don’t know what’s
over there.
Well, I have an idea
of what’s over there
and I know I wouldn’t like it.
It’s at the beginning
and lonely
and I wouldn’t be able
to think about you over there.
I need to be here.
This is where we kissed.
This is where we held hands.
We talked a lot
and we prayed together
and we laughed
and we fell in love
and we felt like we had met our dreams.
I know you are gone now,
but here is where I still have you.
I can’t move from this spot.
I can’t move from you.
