Missing

One was expressive, one was passive

One loved me, one pushed me away

One had words, the other had silence

One was colourful, one was grey

One I miss, the other was missing

One was happy, the other sad

Two lights, green and red, both blinking

Frozen on amber I was nearly mad

Oh no, I was never depressed

Never depressed in my life. Not for one day

Shut up, Tony. No-one wants to hear what you have to say

One was poetic, one prosaic

One was wood, the other was air

Two people, one was missing

Two parents, one not there
