Spent labor day waiting for you to call.
cleaned the house, did the laundry,
stared blank at the wall.
despair so great left me feeling so small
In the end seems I felt like nothing at all.
One we would be spending each second we had,
finding new ways for making each other feel glad,
now, all I know is new ways to feel sad,
Emptiness got me hurting
I'm aching so bad.
It's cold out and gray, which is fitting for me,
for cold is my feeling and gray all I see.
Each second that passes brings more misery,
each lasting an eternity,
a painful, slow eternity.

It's a shame how people are so insensitive to other's feelings... how simple kindness would keep pain at bay and yet selfishness or fear blinds us to the obvious. A well written poem, full of emotion and pain that's so recognizable to all who've lived and loved...
Well done...
