Opinions
Awake at three. With only the stars as company. Alone with my thoughts. The good, the bad, the memories, the what-might-have-been. I still miss him. No matter what I do. It’s hardest when I’m alone. At night, in bed. With only the TV as company. To distract me from my waking dreams. Out here there’s only emptiness. I focus on the stars. One falls. I make a wish.
July, 2019. Written while I was still sad.
