Life Stories ...

There is a time at night When the world has gone quiet Not a single sound is made And you are overwhelmed by it   The world is at rest Yet, the mind is awake With nobody there to talk to What is there to do, until dawn breaks?   You may find yourself in this situation Time and time again A mind, yearning for someone to talk to A heart, in desperate need of a friend   This need for interaction It is toxic, and no good for the soul For with it comes a sadness Which can take a heavy toll   Sitting in the darkness. Simply letting your thoughts roam. With nothing to hear but the sound of silence. This, is when you’ll feel most alone.

Dear Diary, As I make my entry today, again I cry. Never thought this love would be so complicated, Never thought that life would be so cold. I think about her every day, Knowing she will never return to me. My life would have been so complete with her, Now I have to live a life without her. Oh, what a lonely and empty life I have been given. My life consists of only memories of her And what our life could have played out to be. Each day I go back to you, my diary, And write my deepest thoughts on your pages. Each day I go out into the world and know that nothing is going to change. The only change that can happen is the change inside my heart. I need to deal with the pain and the loss and move forward in my life. The love I had was a gift, And I need to place this in your pages, my dear diary. My heart will one day heal, My mind will one day live again.
