Still...

Still...


The days are cold, the nights are long, I miss you

Still

Alone in my thoughts my world seems motionless, I think of you

Still

You never call, I still wait, wondering, my heart needs to know if you still remember and if you still care

Regret is something that is unforgiving, it will not cease to remind me of my solitude

Time seems endless, each minute represents a tear I have shed.  I thought that I was over you, I know that I am not

No matter what I try to do I can't get over being without you

You are out there with someone new, forgetting the years I shared with you when you held me in your heart

Stop for a minute and listen to the wind

Always remember that I love you

Still...

Reason for writing:

    I woke up last night and I found myself in a space that was lonely and sad and I wrote this poem
It is nearly 2 years now since I was left alone and sometime the pain is as real and sharp as it always was
Sometimes I think I am doing well, other times, like last night I am not. Monday, Dec.09 is my birthday and I know that I will
miss being with someone.  I write to help me, both as a journal and as therapy.  I hope that someone else will relate to my work
and also they may realize that they are not alone.  No matter what sexual orientation, or race, or colour, pain is pain and missing 
someone hurts.

Thanks for reading my poem
