Climbing Time

Climbing time

Tredging forward and climbing time. Hoping to find an end to this darkness that has befallen me. So far it is endless and feels like it may slowly smother me. 
This darkness carries sadness and this sadness is thick and heavy like tar. It feels insurmountable and inescapable. 
I need to catch my breath, I need to feel normal again but you are no longer here and therefore it is impossible.
So I must forever learn to live in darkness and sadness....even if I don't want to.
