LosT

I carry a burden you do not know
It’s so heavy I’m surprised it doesn’t show
My shoulders are squared against the blow

I think of you often and a day
Why is it so difficult to make you stay
My memories of you are starting to fade and fray

As the world goes round and round
I sit in silence awed by the sound
Of a quiet vacuum that knows no bounds

I lost me when I lost you
