It’s Hard To Breathe Without You

I never thought love could leave me gasping for air.

But here I am, struggling to find my footing in a world that feels so empty without you.

You were my everything — the one constant in a life full of uncertainties.

I loved you so deeply that your presence became as essential to me as breathing.

Every day, I woke up with the warmth of knowing you were mine.

You weren’t just my partner; you were my home, my safe place, my anchor.

I built my world around you, trusting that you would always be there, only to watch it crumble when I discovered your betrayal.

I don’t understand how you could look me in the eye, hold my hand, and whisper promises you never intended to keep.

You told me I was your everything, but you still found someone else.

Do you know what that did to me? How it shattered every ounce of trust I had?

Now, I find myself lost in the silence of a life without you.

The bed feels colder, the nights are lonelier, and the person I used to be seems like a distant memory.

I look in the mirror and hardly recognise myself.
