Today

Today I went to work,

My body stiff, my head held firm…

Don’t drift, don’t think, just be present.

Today I forced a meak smile

Involuntary nod, fingers twitching…

Don’t let them see, just breathe slowly.

Today I existed without you,

Allowed myself to be more than a shell…

Don’t remember, don’t forget.

Today I still cried,

That hollow pit reminding me…

That tonight there is still no you.
