Causation
Looking out of the window, I am free
The blank sky is everything to me
and nothing. No thing can keep me this way.
So far I've survived every day
Every day with you in it
Every day without you.
Scrawling an essay fast, I am me
The blank page needs these chains to be
free. These things can keep me alive
until That arrives. I survive
Every day with you in it.
Every day without you.

I hesitate slightly at some of the rhymes (arrive and alive) in particular and a couple grammar issues (...essay fast - fast wants to be an adverb and is not) - and I'm usually pretty easy going with that kind of thing in poetry.
It does a nice job at conveying the loss
