The Hole

the hole is still there
in my heart
like a cannonball
shot through
and left only enough heart
for me to survive

to live

how can a hole be
so very heavy?
difficult to hold
difficult to carry
through a day or
a week, a month, a year

to live

today, this hole
has been part of me
for two long years
two blurry years
edges healed a bit
edges healing still

to live

but still the hole remains
i dress with it
eat with it, sleep with it
i hate the hole, but
it's the only part
of him that remains

Rest in Peace, my Love.
