My love, my loss

my heart yearns for absolution

My love, my loss

Oh, how the weight of my sorrows bears down upon me,

Crushing my spirit and breaking my heart.

Depression, like a dark cloud, hangs over me,

Blocking out the light of hope and joy.

My love, my heart, my everything, is gone.

Left me with nothing but emptiness and pain.

I thought our love was unbreakable, eternal,

But it crumbled like a castle made of sand.

I cannot shake this feeling of despair,

It grips me tight and refuses to let go.

I try to find solace in memories,

But they only serve to deepen my woe.

I am lost, alone, and broken,

A mere shadow of my former self.

I cannot see a way out of this darkness,

It seems my heart will never heal.

But perhaps, someday, the light will return,

And I'll find the strength to carry on.

Until then, I'll bear this burden,

And try to find a way to heal and move on.
