Life Does Go On........

I was not altered by your death,

unless you count my loss of breath.

I was not changed by your demise,

unless  you note my blinded eyes.

I'm still the person that you knew,

except for what I say and do,

It's just the same old daily grind,

except I've lost 

my heart,

and mind.
