The Loss of Words

The Loss of Words

You're gone and I miss you. I miss the notes we used to send to one another.  The quiet conversations, the caring messages composed with a myriad of words.  Love letters unbound yet held dear.  Soul found in phrases.  But when you left, you took everything with you.  Every word you ever wrote vanished, and not a single trace remained.  Like a book filled with empty pages, the words disappeared, as if they had never been.  And I stare blankly at an empty screen.  I keenly feel the loss of you, but even more, I mourn the loss of words.
