Brightest Light
Smiling and laughing,
But the joy is lacking.
I’m going through the motion,
But devoid of emotion.
Where do I go from here,
Since you are no longer near?
How do I find meaning again,
When I feel so much pain?
I barely feel alive,
And I’m looking for the drive
To master this world called life.
Do you have any advice?
Whisper in my ear,
Or, please do appear.
I want to see your human form
As I brave the biggest storm.
So many wasted moments;
All that’s left are well-meaning condolences.
How can the world keep on turning
When its brightest light is no longer burning?
The sky may be blue,
But gray is all I see without you.
