ON YOUR OWN
It’s not until you lose someone
That you realise just what you had
The emptiness they have left behind
Makes every day so sad
The silence that surrounds you
As you sit there on your own
Makes your loss a big reality
Especially the feeling of being alone
Good memories are so important
As you build a life so new
They can never be taken away from you
Also they stop you feeling so blue
You now have to change your lifestyle
So the loneliness will subside
Find other ways to pass the hours
Then let gentle hope be your guide
Reach out to friends you’ve drifted from
Let new conversations start
Fill the quiet times with simple joys
That will slowly mend your heart
Though your loss will always shape your day
Many nights will feel so long
You’ll learn to carry your love within
While you find the strength to go on
Although loneliness may walk beside you
Please ensure it will not always define
The new life you build from your courage now
Will in its own time always shine
KEEP STRONG AND MOVE ON !!!!
