Obliterated

Obliterated

This is not a word I use often but when I think of how grief and loss feels this word is as close as I can describe it.

Obliterated: destroyed utterly

This is how losing you feels. This is how my soul feels without you here.

There's no way back from this. I will never be whole again. There will always be cracks, fractures and holes marking this time, marking this loss. 

Obliterated is absolute and that is how I know things will never be the same again.
