"When you lose someone, when a close friend slowly starts to become a stranger, you begin to speak less. You don't speak about what really matters because the person you used to talk about your thoughts with isn't there anymore. Your heart hurts, it has been hurting since the day they left. You would give anything to have them in your life again, you would give anything to tell them about your days again and for them to tell you about theirs. Every detail, everything that made them sad and everything that made them laugh. You imagine scenarios in your head, you wonder what they're doing and if they think about you when they hear your favorite song. It's okay to miss someone. It's okay to feel lost and alone. It's okay to pray for them to be happy, it's okay to pray for them to be yours. It's true that many won't understand you the way you wish they would. You're still here and you're still fighting. You have demons that don't sleep and even if you're doing things half-heartedly, you're still going. When that person left, it felt like they took you with them, sometimes you wish they had. Find light beneath the darkness, find hope where you think it cannot be found because one of these days that weight in your heart will feel lighter. One of those days you'll learn to live again."
