I never got to ask you
And now I never will
So many thoughts in my mind
Alone is how I feel
.
I cannot hit stop
My mind will not allow
If only you could hear me
My voice, somehow
.
What happens to our love
When we drift apart?
Where does it go
When we have to restart?
.
How much do we have to hurt
Before the pain subsides?
Does it hurt for them as well
How it hurts me inside?
.
Will it just pass away
Along with the time?
Will it just stay with me
One day to feel fine?
.
As lying to ourselves
To suppress the obvious truth
Seems easier to us
Than seeing the actual proof
.
And which of us is unbroken
Tattered in shadowed thoughts?
Now feeling enormous regret
Wishing that they had fought
Love the lines ❤️

Oh Sherell, we haven’t communicated in sooo long. Was thinking about you just the other day. How are you what are your current projects? What have you been up to?

This is beautiful and poignant, Phil, but I hear your deep pain, too. I’m so sorry you never got to say goodbye. I don’t know if it ever stops hurting. I’m still hurting from not being able to say goodbye to my Mum, too. Perhaps, the pain of our losses will become less over time. I do hope so for you. Hang on in there … Ellie x 💜

Thank you Ellie, it is a really short piece and it can be interpreted in different ways. It was written a while ago in my book searching for you. Thank you for your comment it is always appreciated

Loved reading this. It connects so deep with what we go through with what if in our lives and at times those are not person specific.
