Window seal

I sit here and wait
For her to come back she said she would
I look down this long slate
While I wished she could
My breath fogs up the window
Waiting for some kind of sign that she's here
Thoughts of her will never go
I know she's near
She called me before she was on her way through the door
I know she's not coming back so why am I still in the window seal?
I saw her that day lying on the cold floor
Nothing I can say will express what I feel
I went to her funeral and watched her sink into the hole
I don't know why I can't move away from the window
It's like I have no more soul
I want her to come back she didn't get to see me grow
I sit here in this window seal
Watching my breath fog knowing she was taken away
Not expressing what I feel
As I sit and watch for her to come back one day
