Grief - A New You

Sitting quitely in the evening, 
The hard days work done and dusted, 
Stillness reminds me I am still grieving, 
Airing my feelings leaves me flustered,

So many questions of how and why, 
Two vibrant souls gone just like that,
Stunned and bereaved I break down and cry, 
Searching for meaning I fall flat, 

A world I no longer recognize, 
Nor the self I once knew, 
Pick yourself up and dry your eyes,
Begin again, I search for you. 

I love you.
