Forever gone; miles apart are you and I
This darkness I can never wade through
It’s the rhythm of life, but I can’t say goodbye
How am I supposed to live without you?
Incomplete I am, without you by my side
This darkness I can never wade through
I willed myself to be strong, I really tried
I broke down; my woes shattered the wall of pretense
Incomplete I am, without you by my side
Empty feels the pouring condolence
I know they mean well, yet none truly feels my pain
I broke down; my woes shattered the wall of pretense
Your love I can never experience again
She led a long life; stay strong, they say
I know they mean well, yet none truly feels my pain
The anguish and longing would never go away
A last glance, an embrace is all I desire
She led a long life; stay strong, they say
It’s the rhythm of life; but I can’t say goodbye.

This is so emotional 🙁 No one can feel other’s pain but your poem really brought alive the pain of losing someone. Well written
🙂
Very poignant. Seems more relatable during the crisis we all are seeing. Wonderful attempt.
