Still Reaching

Описание: The night settles heavy on my chest
A weight I can’t push away
I try to calm the trembling inside
But it grows louder every day

Your voice still circles my thoughts
Soft enough to make me hurt
I reach for something to steady myself
But everything slips into the dirt

I feel the emptiness where you were
A hollow carved into my skin
I trace the edges with shaking hands
Trying to understand where to begin

The memories come like broken glass
Sharp, scattered, impossible to hold
Each one cuts a little deeper
Leaving stories I can’t retell or mold

I stare at the ceiling for hours
Letting the darkness pull me in
It fills the spaces you once warmed
And settles deep beneath my grin

Sometimes I think I hear your laugh
Distant, drifting through the air
But when I turn, there’s only silence
And the sting of knowing you’re not there

I close my eyes to find a moment
One where your hands were still mine
But it fades like smoke around me
Gone before I can make it align

My heart feels tired and unsure
Like it’s trying to beat through stone
It learned to move beside your rhythm
Now it falters on its own

I don’t know how to heal this
Or when the ache will start to fade
All I know is I’m still reaching
For the love we never saved.
