I feel so lost
Alone and empty
The pain of the loss is too great some days
I don’t know how to breathe
Forcing myself to make it from one moment to another
I reach for you and imagine you are here
That I can hear your voice whispering in my ear
Imagining your arms around me as you sing me to sleep
And I hurt that much more
Knowing what can never be
The pain is too great to bear
And I often crumble beneath it
I pretend to be strong
Yet I feel like I’m dying inside
Each day the void within me continues to grow
Taking more of me as it does
What will be left of the girl you once knew
The woman you claimed to have loved
Was it all a lie
It must have been
Because you are still not here to hold me when I cry

Beautifully expressed. Sad, too. I can relate. I’m so sorry you are feeling this way.
Thank you for sharing it though…as you make me feel less alone.
You have HUGS from me!!!
that hit me because a lot of those words are things I feel I’m struggling with
*hugs*
Tough poem and well said. Life can be tough. I am 80–I had a few tough spots.
