the end

I loved the Moon

There’s no stopping it

There’s no changing it

What is it to love

What is it to lose

Being found

Being left behind

To be at your highest

To fall to your lowest

Feeling everything

Feeling nothing

Knowing what love can do

Knowing what pain can do

The silent suffering of a past that once was

The remorse engulfs as a wave washes over

Grasping for a path of light in a forest of darkness

Clinging to every branch trying to save yourself

Each one breaking after another

Years pass but the pain doesn’t fade

First thoughts as the sun rises

Last thoughts as the sun sets

Letting the numbness carry through

Pain to sharp to confront so it resides inside

Infecting your soul

Living by the pain refusing to let it go

Love can never be what it was

A truth

A lie

What is

What isn’t

Yes

No

To be whole

To be apart

Tears flow as pain hardens

Love for you will never vanish

We’re different people now

But we’re still the same

If not in this life

Maybe another
