Today I discovered
Shock has a way of making all emotions fuzzy
A dull ache fills my body
Things will never be the same again.
In the days/months/weeks following
I filled the hole in my chest
With cigarette smoke
Chain smoking until my lungs would finally explode
All I got for my troubles was a headache
And the pain of knowing you were never coming back
How do you even begin to cope
With the loss of someone you've known from birth
Does the pain
Does the pain
Does the pain go away
Or does numbness just take it's place
