A solemn sunny day
The world seemed to still
I lack power
I lack will
The gentle breeze
A postman walking
Distant hum of cars
One in particular has my focus
Knowing who it's transporting
But I try not to focus on that
Vibrant green
Light swaying of branches
Clear blue sky
A calming hush of the wind
The area is empty
Nobody's around today
As if sensing what's to come
Bright warm sunlight
And he walks in my vision
I can't help but smile
Even though he's going
I get to see him leave
And hopefully
That'll be enough for me
I shouldn't think too hard...
And just like that
He's gone
I can't hear the car anymore
Silence
Deafening silence
I'm alone
Coldness creeps along my skin
The emptiness of the house
The hole in my chest
A twisting in my gut
Silence
Panic is filling me
My eyes hurt
My throat constricts more
Silence
My mind is racing
Thinking of what I can't do
Not anymore
Pressure in my skull
Silence
Small noises seem so loud now
I'm heating up
My legs ache
My teeth grind
Silence
My breathing shaky
Birds chirping
No one's here
My legs tingle
Silence
Life takes a pause
Everything's muted,
For just a split second
I feel heavier
Silence
It feels like that's all I'll know
For a long time
The air is stolen from me
My heart, taken with him
And I'll be waiting
In silence
