I can't go on like this.

I can't just crawl into bed, out of fear of the darkness and force myself to sleep through exhaustion. It's only the second day, yet this sentence has already consumed me.

I can't go on being forcefully woken at six every morning, to the only thing that matters now - that you're gone.

Never mind that there are so many things we cannot do now - never mind that we can no longer speak the words that lost their meaning, because of the many careless times we've used them.

Where are you now, my love - and why can't I touch you where you are? Come quickly, for these tears I weep, they get bitter and colder by the moment.

My mind races with eighteen month's worth of what I could have done, if only to prevent such a mishap. Love, I cannot do much else, but silently wish for the day you feel the same way.
