Without words
Today my heart hurt too much to function
but I did. I managed to put one foot in front
of the other and did my job,
and went walking with a friend
Life seems to be moving on
without a huge part of my family
and I find myself without words
to express the gaping hole in my heart and life
How do I express the pain that I feel just
thinking about a future without my son?
How can I describe the desolate state of my
heart and mind right now, as pain pulses through my being?
How can I be who I am, without the part of me that
made up my beloved son?
I have no words for once. There is no way to describe
a world without him.
