That line about the loneliness of losing witnesses completely broke me, because it captures exactly what it feels like to carry a world that only you remember anymore ✨

I think that’s one of the deepest lonelinesses there is. ❤️‍🩹 So many quietly carry worlds that no longer have witnesses. Thank you for reading the poem and piece so tenderly. 💛

There is a quiet ache in this that feels deeply true.

Not only grief, but the loneliness of becoming the keeper of memories no one else still carries.

“Love is listening closely enough that another person’s memories do not vanish unnoticed.”

Beautiful line.

Thank you for reading with an open heart. Yes, a loneliness that can’t be rectified. 💛
