a love unfinished
it's been dark since you went
August 26th, 2025
even the clouds and skies agree… it’s been dark since you went, wild and free.
our souls intertwined so deep, so fast, we held each other close and vast.
no matter how much time slipped past, the bond we share, we made to last.
i met you wherever you were. for so long our darkness danced together.
how many times did we dig each other out? we held space to listen, to cry, to shout.
and every time…we were brave and bold, you are the brightest light, the most beautiful soul.
we were always laughing or singing or dancing. remember when we wanted to be drummers, sticks in the car with music blasting?
half of my wardrobe is in old pictures of you. sharing closets was something we never outgrew.
weeks on end, snuggled up, just us, we could never seem to get enough.
we never had a reason to fight; our souls understood each other just right.
you were there for my first love and each heartbreak. when i got my first tattoo, it was your hand i’d take.
you stood beside me on my wedding day. we always have each other, come what may.
and when i miscarried, you whispered god doesn’t make mistakes. then kinsler came, and i knew your heart had found its safest place.
your laugh still echoes in every memory, your sense of humor always my remedy.
a girls’ girl through and through, you showed me a different point of view.
one of the two i could always run to, and now i don’t know how to feel without you.
i’ve cried until my eyes are swollen, raw and red. every step feels full of all consuming dread.
i’m still in shock…it’s hard to breathe. why did you have to leave?
i keep waiting for you to come over and play. i hurt so bad, i would’ve begged you to stay.
i keep questioning if this is real, if it’s true. and now it’s impossible to ever go back and undo.
i crave more time, more of you. a love unfinished…but endless too.
