Grief and Loss

Without you,

I feel empty.

Without you,

I feel numb.

Without you,

I feel hopeless.

Without you,

I feel lost.

I'm always down

And need you around.

I miss you with all my heart,

Because we are too far apart.

You're an angel

Way up high.

A beauty way up,

Up, in the sky.

Without you,

I'm learning how.

How to manage.

How to manage my feelings.

How to feel my feelings.

How to not hurt myself.

The work is hard.

Will it ever be worth it?

I am always drained,

Both mentally and physically.

Maybe I'll be okay,

Someday.
