I wish my body did not ache so much
Some days
As I struggle to contain all these feelings
And try to deal with what is left
In the aftermath
Sometimes it feels as though
I am the sole survivor of a war
One in which I never really knew
The truth of what I was fighting for
Was it just that I was
Struggling all of this time
To stay afloat
A soul so often feeling itself to be
Inundated by the waves
Often having lost the sight
Of dry land
At times the entire struggle seems like a maze
And that is when I know I am lost
In my head
And then when you say
I am your everything
Its scares me
And yet
When you are gone
I miss your love
I really miss your love
Lately my love
I feel so utterly lost
And then the deluge comes
As the truth of what I have denied
Refuses to lie
Sleeping any more
And then no one is as surprised as me
When the hidden language of my heart
And not my mind
Breaks free
Asking of you
If you will let me
Can I lean on you
Can I lean on you
My love
Not forever
Maybe just
For a couple of days

Your poem’s words truly resonated with, someday are full of physical aches other days are full of heart aches, basically I ache inside and out…… Sometimes I wish for someone, someone to caress the aches. 🤔🙄

I totally understand Ivor I just took my self out and lay on the grassy bank and hugged Jasper. Its not as good as a human though. Loss leaves its aches written deep with the heart and body. Many hugs. 🤗.

Its quite soothing if the smell doesnt over power you. Even a few sprigs would be good.if you dont have the essential.oil.
