There is a space by my side. Do you see it? Once it laughed, when all was right. But with the changing tide I was gone and it left: life swept aside. A rip where once was full,  now all is null. But now I find it's lack a fine companion. I laugh and the silence eats it I speak and the words fall flat I cry and the lonlieness engulfs. There is a space by my side. Do you see it? Do you see it? Do you see me? The silence is all the response I need.

(Lack of) Actions Speak Louder Than Words
There is a space by my side. Do you see it? Once it laughed, when all was right. But with the changing tide I was gone and it left: life swept aside. A rip where once was full,  now all is null. But now I find it's lack a fine companion. I laugh and the silence eats it I speak and the words fall flat I cry and the lonlieness engulfs. There is a space by my side. Do you see it? Do you see it? Do you see me? The silence is all the response I need.
"We feel lonely when we don't feel known and valued for who we truly are." For each question you ask, answer. It might painful, but so is exercise. It'll be good, I promise. It will be.
