Nights are the hardest
When the high fades
The memories come flooding back in
And it hits me like a force
All I can do is lie in bed and cry in silence
Until it doesn't hurt anymore
I don't miss you
I only miss how I felt in those moments
Then I remember the end
I cry harder
Pillow over my face
Trying to muffle my cries so no one will hear
I hate the hollow shell of who I am after you
Broken, hurt, empty... lost
I gave so much of myself to you
You left me with almost nothing
I almost didn't survive you
And I hate how much power over me I gave to you
But someone found a small light faintly flickering inside me
He saved me
An angel I didn't realize God put by my side
I see the good in him
I felt my soul recognize his
And I began to heal
But hesitation lingers
Because you shattered my heart in a way that is nearly impossible to heal from
But I try every day
Breathing life into this love I have found
With every kiss, every hug, every smile
A piece of my heart is healed
Finally, I look forward to seeing tomorrow
