Triggers

I am adjusting
to the silence,
though I often miss
his innocent touch.

If only
you were this close,
to be inside
my mind all day.

A secret chaos
from skin to soul.
The ink has dried
with partial truths.

I feel the echo of you,
along with unmet desires.
The only triggers which make me
not leave this world behind.

loved these lines :)
the pain of loosing the loved one and to go on living holding onto their memory... beautifully conveyed :)

So stunningly painful, how the beauty of the longing stings with each line, the joy fading in each breath. And how the lingering light of this love, this once tender encounter keeps you breathing still.
