We don't shatter when something breaks..
we simply shift, quietly, irreversibly.
The version of us that once was stays behind like a memory fading away.
It isn’t pain that changes us, it’s the fear of becoming undone again.
Each moment was a mirror, not to reflect who we are,
In losing them, a part of you fades,
A shadow of joy in the memories made.
Though they are gone, their spirit stays,
In your heart forever, through all your days....
When you lose someone who was so near,
You lose a part of yourself, it’s clear.
A piece of your heart goes away with them,
A bond that was strong, like a precious gem.
Memories remain, quiet and bright,
Reminders of love that feel just right.
Without them near, you feel so alone,
Searching for comfort, a place called home.
Its always me, running away...
In this endless journey, I find myself retreating, not just for my own peace, but to shield what I love from the storms inside me. I run to protect both myself and the things that matter most!
