loss

As naturally as night follows day, as the tide rises and ebbs away, my love for you continues to grow stronger. No one is to blame, not you nor I, somehow it happened, maybe, nay, surely, more me than you, falling in too deep with no hope of rescue. I love you, more than you'll ever know, certainly more than I can ever show. I miss you, more with each passing day... but most of all, I despair, not only for losing a love but also it would seem, for losing a friend.

As your silence grows louder, my heart wants to shout in protest... but I kept silent and will continue to keep silent, until such time when my heart can finally beat again without excruciating pain. For my sanity I wanted to say goodbye, but know deep down I cannot. For how can I say goodbye to a love once lost and now found? For the short time we were together, it felt like I have lived an entire lifetime... And so once again, I follow your lead, in silence while I try to live life alone... forever bound to you, yet forever without you.
