I sat by the tree where we used to read
The wind moved slow through the yellowed leaves
The bench was cracked but held me fine
The same way you once held my spine
The grass had grown, the path was light
I watched a bird forget its flight
And in the breeze I thought I heard
A memory tucked inside a word
I sat by the tree
Like I always do
But this time I
Was there for you
I traced your name in the dusty ground
Then let it fade without a sound
A squirrel passed by with something sweet
And paused a second near my feet
The sun broke through the thinning air
And caught the gold still in your hair
Not really there, but not all gone
Like afternoon that lingers on
I sat by the tree
Like I always do
But this time I
Was there for you
You never said a grand goodbye
You just stopped showing up nearby
And now this place is where I go
To sit with time and let it flow
I sat by the tree
Like I always do
But this time I
Was there for you
