Emotional Pain
Emotional pain does not strike immediately,
it does not wallop
upon instigation,
this pain often lays dormant,
hiding in your crevices,
as friends and activities distract,
the heartache creeps up your chest
as you lie in bed
alone in your room,
reviving the memories
of the smile you had
in that same spot
months ago,
it steals your breath for a moment
as you realize you will never hear her giggle again
