The Truth of Death

She waits by the phone every night.
Waits for your call.
But I don’t know how to tell her it isn’t coming.

She cries on your old bed everyday.
Her tear stained face stares at me with empty eyes.
But I look away.

She knows that you are gone,
But she doesn’t want to believe it.
I don’t either.

Truth hurts far more than any other reality.

How True

The last line is so true! Good piece, well written
