Embracing heartache

Saying goodbye ripping through my core, stirring up sadness that is too hard to ignore Sorrow seeping into the dirt of my soul while questioning if I will remain whole Not pushing around the feelings coming my way Instead leaning in to see what they have to say Realizing the heartache is telling me how hard it is to miss Leaving a hole in my chest the size of an abyss But the correlation is becoming clear now The depth of the abyss is tied to the amount of love you poured out So give me the grief from loving hard as it's better than keeping my heart trapped behind bars
