Relief
Silent tears
On cloudy days
Heartache
That doesn't go away
My heart does break
It slowly rips
Fragments fall
Into the depths
Of my despair
I'm exhausted
Wishing you were here
Sadness coated in despair
Every day
The ache gets worse
Nights are long
And full of hurt
The pain subsides
For brief seconds
Sleep
Brings slight relief
