Tired of waking up alone

Tired of waking up alone

A Poem by Grant Duncan III
"

I've realized it is time to make sacrifices if you sincerely care.

"
Waking up without her by my side frightens me in such a explicit way, that trying to hide it is fruitless. 
Peers frequently question my quiet demeanor. 
I've grown weary of this fear, it eats at my spirit. 
I've allowed this subtle form of suicide to persist for too long.  
She's been patiently waiting.  
Her faith in love and hope inspires every move I make until we are side by side again.  
Nothing could stop me but death and I'm certain even he would question himself before making that attempt. 
The time has come to part with my old ways.  
Now I know that sacrifice does not mean loss. It is a gift for someone or something you love more than yourself.
