A poem...for the lost souls that stayed by my side...

Empty Shell

I can't imagine a day without you,
yet I live with no one to talk to,
for I am nothing more than an empty shell,
a shell of my former self.

You left me alone those fateful days,
only to make me suffer in numerous ways,
for I can no longer hear the joyous bell,
a sound that reminds me of my former self.

I continue to live the mournful past,
watching events fly by so fast,
for I long for the past that I once lived,
a past that belongs to my former self.

I never was able to say farewell,
yet we never parted ways as well,
for I see the spirits of those that once lived,
A bunch of spirits that remind me of my former self.

Not much of a poem, but it serves as a tribute to my past.
