Do you know what it feels like to stare into an empty space?
An empty bed
A place that used to be filled
But now it's all a space of nothingness that is trying to you embrace
It used to be fiilled up with realities
But now it is permeated with sad memories
Memories that slap you in the face with full blown atrocities
Memories that will stay with you for centuries
How do you explain the feeling of emptiness ?
When you loose someone who used to complete you
Someone who you thought was timeless
Someone who your feelings for were eternally true
And then someone says to you quietly
"You won't see her/him anymore,
He/she is now heavenly"
And that feeling of pain, they tell you, you will have to endure
But how will you tell them
That this person, you conversed with just yesterday
You can't believe is in another realm
That with this person gone, your skies now are gray
But maybe there is that hope
That hope that they all say
That hope that you will someday cope
Cope with the thought that you will meet up with the person someday
Someday, up there
Someday, above
Where you meet up with the person with great cheer
And reunite with such great love
But what happens before that time comes?
What happens?
Until Then

Tosin : This is simply beautiful
Aderogba Ola: Its such a painful, unexplainable feeling.
But like the poem says from paragraph six..
That hope of meeting again in yet a better place brings consolation.
