Loss

A loss, of someone so very dear to me, sent me falling to my knees.
A day in bed; to forget, to remember, to escape, to try and build strength.
Waking up, going back out into the world - eyes blinking. Surprised to find it's still going on as usual. That very few share your pain. That most people forget why you seem out of focus every now and then. That the events of thursday didn't turn the rest of the world upside down like I feel it should have.
