An Uneasy Feeling


Thoughts of confusion were swirling 
in my head, and I desperately needed 
a quiet place to be,
I headed to the seaside, where I sat, 
gazing into the sea.
The calm, still body of water was
undisturbed by the gust of wind that
whizzed by,
Immersed in the silence of nothingness,
I prayed these muddled thoughts would
 fly away like a butterfly.

As I turned my head towards the sky,
I saw the dark clouds were slowly drifting 
by,
Suddenly, I felt the warmth of his sweet 
love draining from my heart , leaving 
it empty and stone cold.
Then, an overwhelming grip of 
emptiness took a painfully tight hold,
The Sun was now barely visible,
Oh, How I wish it were possible to be
invisible.

Oh, how I wished I could let go of this 
woe.
I couldn’t help but wonder if I was the
last one to know.

Hello Zyrool, A heart break is hard to deal with whether in a relationship long or short. It takes time to heal. You just have not found your soulmate yet. Hugs. /Darlene/
