Nothing prepared me

     for this deep abyss

         of loss.

One day, you're a couple

      and then

          you're one.

Your identity has changed

      you search high and low

           then you realize once again

                you're just one.

You no longer fit

      with other couples

          so you tend to shy away.

Because, it reminds you once again

      you're just one.
