The morning comes, the light that used to warm our faces

Now only a reminder of times long past

With it, comes another day in your abscence

Finding a way to push through seems as daunting a task as ever

Will I be whole again?

A foolish question, for without you my soul only yearns for the warm of your embrace once more

And that is all she knows.

The abyss that I’ve come to call my home greets me into another day trudging her depths

Depths so dark that many would choose any other path

But that is the nature of grief. I take pleasure in the darkness

Because the darkness is a reminder of the light that left my life upon your departure

So I walk this path

Cold and lonesome

And I find comfort in the depths

For they only exist because you once filled them

And that is my consolation.

If ever a chance was given

To go back and change it all

I wouldn’t change a thing, choosing this darkness over a life of bliss

Because to know this darkness, is to know the abscence of you

And abscence makes the heart grow fonder it seems

She has become my companion

A friend to walk along my side

A constant reminder

Of what I once loved

And my love for you will transcend time and space itself

To hold you once more

It’s what I live for.
