I sit in silence and feel you go through me.

Pushing your way in, cracking my bones open to cradle my beating heart.

The pain paralyzes me, and I can’t breathe.

The searing loss of you assaults my entire being.

You are going through me in waves and falling down my spine.

Electrifying my hair, the same as when your fingers lingered on my strands as you buried your face in my neck to inhale my scent so you could carry it with you.

I sit in my silence absorbing the pain and letting my tears stream down my face, blurring my vision, forcing my eyes to close. 

I catch my breath as I see your face. I settle into the waves and feel it all.

The pain and memories of you are all I have left.
