My Goodness it Still Hurts

Call me pathetic as I cry on the bathroom floor clutching your t-shirt and screaming to God with piercing words

Please give me strength

 

Call me a mess because my hands are shaking as I write this and I'm not sure where it will end up

 

And say I am weak because I'm not sure how I am going to make it through tomorrow without you

 

But never say I am a coward. I set my beating flesh and blood heart in your hands fully understanding that this may happen.

 

I still have some blood in my veins and the stabbing pain in my heart will heal one day.
