Empty Silence

your death leaves a heartache no one can heal

By Uncledee'Published about a year ago 2 min read

The love I have for you, helps me keep memories that no one will ever steal. They are the threads that bind my heart to yours, weaving a tapestry of moments that stretch from our first meeting to the last time I held you close. Each memory is a precious jewel, glimmering with the warmth of your smile, the sound of your laughter, the way your hand fit perfectly in mine. Yet your death leaves a heartache no one can heal, a wound that festers beneath the surface, raw and tender, no matter how much time passes.

I once imitated us; you and I, like sea and shore. Our love was a dance of tides, ebbing and flowing, crashing and retreating. Each wave that washed over us brought something new - a shared glance, a whispered secret, a moment of pure connection. But even as the waves came and went, there was a sense of familiarity, as if we had been here before, as if our souls had known each other in a time long past. We were a part of something eternal, something that transcended the physical world, something that would endure even after the final wave had crashed upon the shore.

Your empty silence cuts so deep, like a knife carving into my very soul. The absence of your voice, your touch, your presence is a gaping void that I cannot fill. It is a pain unbearable, a darkness that seeps into every corner of my being, threatening to consume me. How will I ever shut it out? How will I ever find peace in a world that no longer contains you?

And yet, someday, I will find the memories we had together shining bright as stars, forever. In the darkest of nights, when the pain becomes too much to bear, I will close my eyes and see them, twinkling in the sky, a reminder of the love we shared. They will guide me to a calm place, where the pain will fade, and all that will remain is the warmth of your love, the comfort of your presence, and the knowledge that even in death, you are still with me.

In that place, I will find you again. Not as you were in life, but as you are now, a part of the very fabric of the universe, a part of me. And at that moment, I will know that the love we shared is eternal and that no matter how deep the pain, no matter how unbearable the silence, you will always be with me, in my heart, in my soul, in the memories that no one will ever steal.

I wanted to be an enigma in a riddle but I don't exactly know what that entails. I'm just a word collector trying to find out the reason why I exist or if my existence does matter. Black with no sugar https://buymeacoffee.com/e.delon
