can't let go


clinging and choking ...
hugging u, releasing the pain,
swallowing my tears,
stroking and sobbing ...
soaking ur fears.
the more i try to push it down,
the more it fights to rise up.
i don't want to look at you.
i couldn't bear the feeling,
not being able to see u -and ur kids- when ever i want to.
so i keep pushing it down,
for your sake, not mine.
as it tries to surface up again,
the pain was resting on my bare lungs.
it hurts ... the burn, the ache,
i held it in again.
i was suffocating;
my heart racing,
my blood raging.
my throat turned in to steel,
i can no longer speak or tear.
i was going to throw up my own heart,
as i kept choking on it.

instead, i never got to even say goodbye.


*ps: to my beloved sister, u have no idea how much i will miss u, inshallah we will see you next year .. take good care of yourself and the kids :*

It is sometimes hard to explain how one feels but you got it on target.

When i read i felt it... you have a talent where one not only reads your words.. but feels it and makes it ones own.

Inshalla she will come back salma and hopefully you will get to see her.

I am so sorry that u didnt get a chance to say goodbye, but u can always give a call at least for now and when she comes back, u will have your chance to see her again.

It must be hard being away from her but distance makes your hearts grow more fonder. I'm sure you will get to see her soon enough.

saying goodbye to your loved ones...
the pain...
the echo in our emptiness...
the void they leave behind...
would never be easy...
no matter how hard we try...
may you get to see them soon...
i am too being left behind...
but the words can't begin to explain how i feel...
best wishes...

That was raw emotion ripped out, chilled, unpolished unedited not re phrased to fit and just typed out on screen as felt.

...good to know some of us still have that ability :)
