Words can´t describe these feelings I have,
No words can still my heartache,
another wave of sadness washes over me
my chest heaves, I can´t breath, my heart breaks.

I collect myself "I´ll be alright",
I repeat these words reassuring,
I break down again, I fall apart,
I can´t change a thing and all that I´m enduring.

Times heals they say,
things will somehow get better
but losing you changed everything
and I´ll be missing you forever.

A different life for me than planned,
I must go another way,
locked in my heart will be your heart,
for an eternity there you´ll stay.

One more lonely night for me, sleep, it never came,
your photo by my bedside watched  me all night,
I told you, I don´t blame.
You´re forgiven my dearest love, of all that went before.
I hope you´re in the happiest place, find peace for evermore.

A poem
By Suzanne Karbach
Sorry another emotional and upsetting poem but I feel the urgent need these days to get all my sorrow off my chest. It´s sort of a cleansing for my soul.

Yeah. Its like that... its exactly like that.. Time doesnt heal it. It makes it.. number. But its always there. We just learn to live with it... Or not. depending . Entire poem rings true, particularly the part about being forced to chose a different path and having to go another way.
Its like you're on a forest path and then all of a sudden there is a hidden cliff you did not see. You miss a step and wind up damaged and with broken everything on the ground somewhere below in a grown in part of the forest, there is no way up, not that you even know where "up" is now. Perpetually lost, we wonder. While nothing really heals..

Sometimes I wish i could carve it all out of myself. But the weaker self cannot let go. To quote Davey Jones from Pirates of the Caribbean: "Love, a dreadful bond." Sometimes it truly is.
