Poem for Jonathan

Looking for Jonathan
by David Reichenbacher

I'd like to think that you're still here
Beside me when I walk
I feel your breath upon my face
At the door, I hear your knock.

On these city streets, you're everywhere
Your reflection's in the glass
I think I hear your voice on the bus
Or in the car that drives past.

You're everywhere around me
Your spirit fills the air
Your peace and warmth surround me
Stay with me, everywhere...

The leaves above, they spread apart
The sun comes shining through
And then I see your brilliant smile
And then I know it's you.

They say that life is but a dream
And death is just as strange
Cuz neither one is real to me now
They both seem just the same.

You're everywhere around me
Your spirit fills the air
Your peace and warmth surround me
Stay with me, everywhere...

Come sit with me, talk to me now
Come tell me how you feel
I feel your arms around my chest
I know you're just as real...
I know you're just as real.
