Winter In December... Poem by chantelle ribeiro

Winter in December
The rain drenches my weary heart
dripping down my face
mingling with the salt water from my soul
My memories filled with the image of your face
I don't understand
the silences that breathe between us
I sometimes stare and shake my head
willing the insecurities away
convincing myself tomorrow's another day
And when the sun is born again
I continue on my way
still I see your eyes in my mind
I miss you every day
You will never know
never comprehend the emptiness
my dark thoughts
my loneliness
The absence of you in my world
and how that leaves me unfulfilled
Since you passed on to another plain
I have never been the same...
