Days go by so slowly.
They seem to never end.
Missing him is beyond words .
You've lost your best friend.
Loneliness empowers you.
The days are hard to bear.
You go to sleep with heartbreak,
Awaken not to find him there.
Sometimes the hurt is not as strong
As strong as in the past.
The nights go by more swiftly ,
Your bed seems not so vast.
You feel guilty that the hurt is dwindling,
Yet free of the grasp it holds.
No longer a prisoner of the past,
Life is now in your control.
Dwindling Love
