The Absence Of You

by Tabitha-Amber Blackwood - Aquarius

I think of how it felt
To look into your eyes...
as I said "I love you".
It took all my courage...
but I trusted you with 
all my being.
You shattered my trust,
but I love you still.
This love I feel can not
be forgotten...
the memories are always
just a thought away.
The absence of you makes me think...
It is better to have experienced this love
and to have the memories,
than to have never known how it can be.
I don't regret a thing...
just that it had to end.
The absence of you...
is the absence of me.

Reason for writing:

    What happens when half of yourself is gone. Time will heal the pain but I will always feel the absence.
