The loss of someone you love
Is a crater of devastation
Full of empty words
Lonely places
Grieving faces
The loss of someone you love
Suffocates each breath
A heaviness in you
The weight of despair
Lays on your soul
Devours you whole
The loss of someone you love
Has you in a sorrowful grip
You are afraid to live
As life continues
You try to keep going
As pain is growing
The loss of someone you love
You'll only find solace in time
The void from their passing
Needs time to heal
It can't be rushed
Grief can't be hushed
