You were there, filling my ears with a soothing tone

A sight for sore eyes, you were there

Gently brushing along my arm, driving me to a crazed point of loyalty

Every single day, you were always there

To reduce the shattered droplets of liquid during my era of sadness

You were there, drawing limbs around my sides with a snug hold and you were lovely

Softly whispering into the night, capturing insomnia to banish it away

Every single day, you were always there

To battle against a hard shell of former disappointment I once had

One particular day, there was an absence of a thousand words

My ears were filled with nothing and my eyes held no reflection of pure beauty

The shattered droplets came again, the revolution of sadness brought forth

My sides felt weak, with no support nor comfort

And nothing was left except the endless insomnia that I would battle for years at a time

This was a special poem I wrote a few years ago and recently found in my self storage container. When I wrote it, I dedicated it to those who have lost a loved one. If you have suddenly been torn away from a family, lover, or friend - I am sure you know how much strength it takes to overcome the pain. In this poem, I have demonstrated how each day was like being around your spouse. Every day, they would come home from work and you both talk amongst each other. They would always make you fall asleep quickly, because every time your husband or wife visits their family without you - it’s just impossible to get sleep. Why is this? It’s because you miss them so much. Before, you were just a sad and lonely being without anyone to share your life with. Imagine one day, waiting for your spouse to get home and nothing happens. Being torn apart without saying goodbye can be one of the most excruciating things you may go through in life, but by writing poetry or talking with someone about it - you can ease the hurtful experience.
