When my heart was yours,
And I was everything for you...
Then in your absence,
Who am I now?

And I love and love again,
Telling myself each time will be better.
The truth being,
I'm only scared,that I'll lose the ability
To love altogether.

You said face your fears,
So I watched as you posted pictures of you and her, day in day out
You said face your fears,
So I watched as you commented hearts next to each other's names
You said face your fears,
So I watched as you called her the nicknames you once called me
You said face your fears,
So I watched as the memory of me began to fade from your eyes
You said face your fears,
And now there is nothing left of me,
But It.

I scribbled some words on the back of my hand,
Reminders to smile for today.
Even if the world chose to engulf my happiness
The ink of my blood it could not erase.
So bent on trying to sort out my life,
Calm the tide of emotions within.
Leaving the small flame that was burning still,
Not knowing it was fading.
Too often I've slipped,
And grazed my heart.
Too often I've exposed my myself,
Now it's time to reclaim my soul...
It's time I played my part.

You changed. Slowly.
So slowly maybe, I'm not sure you even saw the difference.
But I did.
And I couldn't speak to hurt you- but I couldn't keep it in.
My soul battled itself.
And there is no victory for one who fights themselves,
For when one part dies, so does the other.

None of me makes sense anymore,
Now that you're gone.
I'm now just the wrong piece of the puzzle.

Breathe in the scent,
That lingers from your clothes.
The way that your mouth curves into a smile
Like you've just grinned at a ghost.
It's crazy where you drive me,
Up walls and beneath your feet.
I sometimes think I've left my senses
Somewhere in my sleep.
It mostly makes no sense what I say
Anyway. Especially on these kinds of days.
Haze between sad and happy,
A contentment in many ways.
But little can be certain
And of that I am sure,
Because the only truth I know I possess,
Is that we're both like two sides of a single coin.

*And as I mixed the colours,
Blending each of their hues,
I realised that not a single shade,
Could paint the mind belonging to you.*

*If I could, I would take out my heart,
And replace it with yours.
Because I'd rather feel your pain,
Then witness you feel it.*

"Absence makes the heart grow fonder"
Or so they seem to say.
I'm not sure I trust that judgement,
As its pain that grows each day.
Your presence is enough to heal,
To calm and to subdue,
And while we never realised,
We owed this peace to you.
And now your gone for just a few days,
It's all too much to think,
That this is what you've been doing each day,
Without a single blink.
For us to think of you in pain,
We'd wish to take away.
Thinking of your labour pains,
Taking this would never repay.
And all this stress, and all this worry
All of it combined,
Would be nothing compared to your sacrifice,
Because even taking your pain on ourselves now,
Would not come close to the way you gave us life.
Mum.
