By brian francis If someone would have told me how hard it would be to wake up every day without you by my side. Or if I had simply realized, the depth of the pain The despair I’d endure no matter how I tried maybe I would have been ready for the loss of that day and the ensuing masquerade: “I’m alright.” the pain endured months and years still an open wound still a veil of tears shed alone in the night I know their good intentions those who’ve loved us both I’ve felt the warmth of their love everyday but nothing could replace you or heal this broken soul not the tears I shed or the words I pray Copyright ©2020 brian francis |
