I have grieved your absence longer than I’ve enjoyed your presence
Yet every detail of your essence is meticulously engraved in each cell of my body.
Our connection is so strong , I still feel the flow of your soul through me from time to time, making it hard for me to forget about you.
Never have I felt so loved, understood and desired in my entire existence and never have I loved someone so deeply, it makes it painfull to pick up the pieces after your silence.
Did the intensity of our encouters scare you? Perhaps are you puzzled that our connection transcends time? Is any of this what made you ghost me?
I keep telling myself that not all questions are meant to be answered. Sometimes the pain is the only feeling left, connecting us to our runner and therefore, we don’t want to let go.
Pain is a universal emotion to be cherished.
A language we feel, yet speak not one word of.
It’s beautiful really.
Just like your words.
Thank you.
We learn a lot from pain and suffering.
Thank you for your kind comment! ⚘️

Thank you Damian ⚘️
Pain is physical….. suffering is mental.
Let suffering go, not easy, but you’re the one hurting yourself.
Very powerfully and intelligently crafted piece.🙏
You are correct, pain eventually goes away. Suffering can take a lifetime to heal…
Thank you for the comment Peter ⚘️

So, the first line of this poem is captivating and sets the tone. It could almost be a poem unto itself. I like how you explore this relationship for the reader, the feelings and dissolved expectations… the emptiness left and the questions we never want to be answered.
Haha you can tell my first language isn’t English. I will correct that…
Thank you for the comments.⚘️
That last stanza keeps echoing.
Thank you kindly for the comment, I just was able to let go, after 10 years….🫣⚘️
Here’s to being clean!
Cheers! 😅
