Gone

I turned to you, expecting you beside me, but you were not there 
I looked around and searched, but I could not find you anywhere 
Had I imagined you here by my side all along 
Hoping you would still be here when you had already gone. 

It's just...

It does not make sense that you would just leave me here alone
Making me face your fears while you should have known 
How I am unable to face this life without you on my own 
Unable to stop the hurt and emptiness which you have sown.

Sometimes I am unsure of what is real or not 
I have misplaced my heart so many times that I almost forgot
What it is to be truly loved or feel treasured
And just like its namesake my heart remains buried...

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Have a blessed day.
