I love thee

B.B.Â
I love thee
The strength it will take
All the pain and ache
How will the future continue
Without you there
In it
When will the suffering end
Is finding peace even an option
At this point it seems unlikely
A darkness creeps through
The daylight is all I see
Are shadows
That swallow my soul
Images of our times together
Haunts me still
Flooding my mind on loop
Each passing moment I
Can feel you near
But your not here
Wondering where you are
Hoping you are happier than I
Dreading the sleepless nights
Where I lie awake missing youÂ
Knowing the end was my doing
Even though you deserve better
There’s a piece of me that wished it
Could have been me
Thoughts of giving up seep into my mind
Wandering but knowing that’s too merciful
The frightening part of it all
Is who I am when I lookÂ
In the mirror now days I see
A face staring back at neÂ
That even I don’t recognize
My love for you won’t ever be
Enough to subdueÂ
The monster glaring back at me
