Light through the darkness

The pitch black void in my heart,

Never full, never satisfied.

Until I found you

A feeling I don't know arose within me,

A feeling of satisfaction.

For once I felt full, it was enough,

You are enough.

You lit up my heart like a firefly in the dark night

Just one little light, one little person and now I'm whole

I still look back at those years of emptiness and wonder how I made it through

Without you

My heart no longer has a void and my head is no longer confused

You are here, my light in the darkness.

    Retract and hide

    I've recently found myself back in my shell

    Pretending to be someone I'm not

    And I think I know why.

     

    I've pulled back from people 

    Only interacting with animals and strangers online

    Radio silence

    I'm opening my phone

    To nothing 

    No messages, no emails, no missed calls,

    All I'm getting is radio silence 

     

    The sinking feeling in my heart returned

    The one where you know something is wrong

    By Bee.Lover

    It's dark out now.

    Stinging my eyes

    The tears come

    Pouring down

    Relentlessly.

    Still breathing 

    Still warm

    Yet dead 

    To me

    And me alone.

    Grief floods me

    Again 

    I'm drowning
