Shadow

When the one you love
dies and decides to
fly away from you closer
to Heaven you feel
as though a piece of
you is gone and there
is a cold breeze like
a cold ghost drinking
water

A dry spell is moving
through there are angels
around holding safe ground
Bodies are moving to
the ground buried 6 feet
Looking for toes or some
kind of clue for life
Only bones in the ground
Moving along to the sky
there is my loved one I
must be dead the shadow
is left behind

Wow! "like a cold ghost drinking water" and the whole second stanza is awesome!
