# Empty House Author: Rogal Ursus Tags: Depression, Love, Poetry, loneliness #6 of Poetry This is something related to the following posting: https://www.sofurry.com/view/581537 My emotions are now a rollercoaster and I now am feeling a wide range from depression to anger. I know I have to be feeling the stages of grief.   Walking through the house a day later The emptiness in my heart, my soul   The silence of the house deafening You aren't here anymore   This has to be a dream.  You can't be gone Reminders of you in the living and dining rooms   Your smell, maybe a plate or glass of yours Walking up to the room that we shared briefly   While you were here The room still has your scent   I lay down on the bed and grasp a pillow and sniff Your scent is still there and the tears begin running down my face   I lay there clutching the pillow for what seems like an eternity When I feel like I can move again, I head to the shower   Start the water and hop in the shower Remembering how we used to shower together   Me leaning up against the wall   Your body up against mine   Your voice, echoing in my ears as you nibble my shoulders   The growl you made when nibbling my ears I can't move at all   The emotions burst through like water through a floodgate I scream out   I cry out But you aren't there   You HAD to leave, to go HOME You had a home HERE.   You had someone who loved you HERE And YOU LEFT ME!   I don't know whether to be angry, upset, or sorry Maybe it was something I did   Maybe it was something I didn't do I want to make it right   I NEED to make it right Help me make it right   What do I need to do? All I think about is being with you   I want to feel your touch To taste your lips on mine To see those beautiful eyes To smell the aroma that is your scent   To hear your voice again   Ring through my ears like music   To heal my broken heart, my broken soul Source: https://sofurry.com/s/Xnr20krn Part of the series Poetry Previous: https://fse.anthro.fr/stories/553318-defenses-down.md
