God I Miss Your Face

I know I should be happy
That you have been freed
But I sit here and I cry
Watching my heart bleed

I’m glad your pain is gone
But my pain just won’t heal
I’m having mixed emotions
I don’t know how to feel

Survivors guilt is strong
Why couldn’t it be me
I’d gladly take your place
Beneath the Willow Tree

The heavens gained an angel
But the world has lost its glow
Losing you is madness
The energy won’t flow

If I could have just one thing
I’d want another day with you
Instead I come unraveled
Because you were my glue

I know I’ll carry on
Because I have no choice
I won’t embrace the darkness
As I still hear your voice

Telling me you love me
Surrounded in your grace
I know you’re always with me
But God, I miss your face

Eryn, your poem is so moving and heartfelt. It really captures the raw feelings of grief, love, and longing after losing someone special. The way you describe bleeding hearts, the Willow Tree, and coming apart without your "glue" paints such a clear picture of sorrow and survivors guilt. But theres also this gentle strength in how you say youll keep going, guided by their voice and presence. That line, "God, I miss your face," hits hard and ties it all together with such a deep ache. Its a beautiful way to express mourning that feels so personal yet speaks to everyone. Thanks for sharing something this touching.
