Because Your Gone

Mandi

 

The world continues to turn

The stars still brightly burn

 

Bustling streets stay alive and full

 

The day doesn't stop bringing the bright sun

The night still calls and beckons for fun

 

Little boys and girls play with cars and dresses of tulle

 

People smile and move on

Yet, I feel empty because your gone

*********************************
Fake okays and I'm alright

My mind stuck in the darkest of night

 

I just try to muddle through

 

Every step feels like my feet are in concrete

My chest aches with every heartbeat

 

I feel short of breath no matter what i do

 

I count down every dusk and every dawn

They seem so long because your gone
*********************************
Tears fall and cover my cheeks

You haven't even been gone a few weeks

 

I must hide and pretend to be strong

 

It seems silly to feel so helpless this way

I know that really everything's okay

 

It's just I'll be without you for so long

 

I know you'll be back, I'll hang on

It's just so hard because you're gone

  • Comment from author about the poem: Missing the hubby. Feeling the blues today. My kids love them to death but sometimes I swear I'm raising monsters. Then the refrigerater broke, didn't know until I got home at the end of the day. Oh yeah, that was a lovely smelly mess. And like right after the guy finished fixing it anand left my washing machine vomits water, flooding the entire laundry room into the hallway. *sits in a corner repeating "positive thoughts, positive thoughts"* Good times. Poem could use a bit of work, probably end up editing it eventually.
