Avoided Reality
A poem about when a special someone who was always there and is suddenly gone
What is this emptiness
that I feel,
knowing you are no longer here?
Emptiness
where my heart once was.
Nothing can ever replace
what you meant to me.
I’ve lost touch with reality,
barely functioning through the day.
Knowing not what to do
or where to go.
Wishing it was all
a bad dream.
In time,
the feelings will vanish
and I will overcome
the sadness I feel.
A shock I never imagined
will be a distant memory.
Author’s Note: The dream that inspired this poem was one I had that involved an ex-best guy friend who I really cared for at one point in my life. The poem is about when you have someone special in your life, it can be about anyone, who you thought would always be there but then one day they are no longer around.
