Tears gently kiss my face as I lay in the thick darkness knowing you're not here. Ever since you left the days have passed by like a blur. Day after day I wake up to the same alarm having to force myself out of bed. I always slowly make my way to work trying to keep you off my mind. Nothing ever works you are always there etched into my brain. Trying to stop the pain I always keep myself busy never having time to relax. I can't relax, when I do all I can see is you, but you're not here. The pain never stops all I want is to be with you again, but I can't. So, I continue sleeping, eating, working, and crying. The only time I feel at peace is when I sleep. Every dream I have contains the warmth I felt with you. It's so painful when I always wake up and you're not here next to me. Knowing I have to live every season that passes without you I become emptier. I miss you. I need you. Yet I can't have you. I don't want to believe the reality I live in anymore, but I know I have to move on. So I've come to visit you for the first time since you left. Even though all I want to do is run from this it's time for me to let you go. I will never forget the time we spent together and maybe in a next life, we can be together.
"I love you, goodbye."
