I wasn't ready
for that last goodbye.
There's so much more
I never got to say.

I feel like my heart broke.
I can't bear to be without you…
and my tears make me choke.

Every time that I sigh,
I think of your face,
And a tear escapes my eye.

I sometimes hold it half a sin
To put in words the grief I feel:
For words, like Nature, half reveal
And half conceal the Soul within.

Quote from “Letter To Joshua F. Speed (1842)”

by the fact that you're gone.
As my heart has aches and pains,
I'm fighting to be strong.
