What does it really mean to lose the one you love?
It means being ripped away from someone you love
Worse, it means that someone hurt someone else
Pain is part of life, yes
But the circumstances that led to this was a different kind of pain
It was as much emotional pain as it was physical
The shock that someone who says they love you
Would physically hurt you is one of the most painful betrayals
That a person can ever feel
It is unexpected, it is shameful, it is heart breaking
But life starts anew
The pain of facing hatred in the eyes of the one you love, fades
In the haze of drunken *** with random strangers can come a friend
Someone who can remind you of what it means to be happy
To be treated with love, even when they are gone
Someone to show you that life still exists
That you are not alone
That there are friends that only want to love you
And for you to be loved
These are the words of pain that are healed through love
When you put down the bottle
Stop searching for comfort in temporary bliss
Start looking for long term solutions
In a place where love is given, received, and returned
Unconditionally
