Swallowing A Sea Of Sadness

Swallowing A Sea Of Sadness
By Paul McCann

.
When I woke up this morning
the blood was pouring out from my broken heart
all over the clean sheets on the top of my mattress .

I crawled out of bed
and walked aimlessly to the kitchen .
My mind was in a mess .

It seemed years since her last text message
But I still hoped she might send an sms .

I made a cup of tea
and found a place to sit down
and swallowed the loneliness .

I turned on the computer and began to write
Down something trying to express ,
How I felt without her .
I’m lost without her love .
It took me a while to get dressed .

Being with her and seeing her
was more than I had hoped for .
I was really blessed

Where has she gone .
What did I do .
What went wrong .
Why am I left here in such sadness .

I haven’t heard from her since yesterday and the
stress I’ve had has just been endless .

A day without her has been much too long .
A week without her ,
Well I must confess ,
would be like hell on earth .
A life without her ,
Dear God I wait for an sms .
