Gone

I think its been almost week,
or maybe just one endless day.
Your voice seems to echo around
my empty head in a sheet of grey.
I have forgotten how to cry,
or maybe I haven't stopped the tears.
I dare not breathe the stale air,
or I'll never again feel you near.
My ability to cope,
is a strange lie that I tell everyone
A pascel abitility to be strong
because I can't face the fact.... your gone.

You've captured the emptiness of loneliness in this and have presented it very well.... I enjoyed it very much!

Hello Daniel

I could almost hear your heart breaking and see the pain in your eyes.  A very well written piece with very real emotions.
I'll look forward to reading more of your work.

Take care.....Sue

Loneliness is hard, it makes the heart thirst for affection, tenderness, a need to be loved
