18. Empty

Phone buzzes, I jump up

My eyes eagerly scanning the notifications

But my heart deflates when I don't see

The name I wanted to see. 


I periodically check in

Wonder if I've a problem with my phone or connection

Everything is fine

Yet I don't see what I want to see.


Months ago, life was different

There was no deflation of hearts

Just an inflation of excitement 

And giddiness of unexplainable euphoria.


Dark days were seldom and tears weren't shed alone

The hardest of the times, I got through easily

With your shadow behind me

And your soothing presence in my life.


But now, every day is dark

Every night is filled with tears

The smallest of hurdles seem daunting

And the spot you lingered in is now empty.


I yearn for those days,

Where we hugged under the sunshine

And joked under the moonlight

Jumping over every hurdle together.


I yearn,

To hear your lilting accented voice

To cuddle up in your warm strong arms

To just be blessed with your presence again.


Hey peeps,

Take care! See you all soon and I'll be back on NYE...a lazy kitten here XD

Forever,

GirlzSparkle
