Sadness Poem by Bailey Staggs

No matter how hard I try, not to feel
My broken hearts, seems it will never heal
I go about, day by day
Hiding all the things, I really want to say
I feel the emptiness, and I try hard to fight
All of my emotions, constantly I write
It helps my head, and slows my mind
But when I'm alone, my strength, I cannot find
I long for you, in all I do
At night, when I dream, even in the music I listen to
Nothing will be able to replace the love we had
But I never imagined, without our love I'd be so sad
I had told myself I'd be fine, and go on
I never believed it'd be so hard, to live with you gone
It feels my heart has been ripped from my chest
My stomach constantly in knots, at night, I'm in uneasy rest
I wear a smile so no one can see
The heartache and pain that dwells inside me
