1AM Headache

There are so many things I miss.

so many people, too

Some gone from this earth in physical form.  

Others... I thought were my friends.  For small moments in life they were.

I have memories.  Some better than others.  

Tonight my eyes are red and my cheeks stained with tears.  

Just another night in my life.  

Just another part of the fight. 

Words of advice have been read. 

Words of encouragement received. 

Things could be worse

my heart begs to differ

my soul feels weak

my faith even less 

but I'm not done.

Time

will heal

rebuild

I'll feel one day

Happiness

I'm broken

I'm lost 

but not without 

guidance

compassion

I'm sure jealous rage will consume

and my angry heart will speak

words of dark from my battered soul

but truth is truth

whether yelled or spoken

One day I'll heal

Faith restored

in people

in life

in love.
