How am I supposed to keep living, now there’s only me, didn’t we decide together that we would always be. How do I keep this façade, while I'm crying to myself? How can I expect others to know the pain in me. How do I walk through the door, knowing your not there. What’s the point in cooking, if there’s no one there to share? How do I live a normal life, when normal seems so strange, if this is what normal is, then I must be quite insane. How do I forgive friends that suddenly disappear, or all the others who said they’d hold me near?

How have I become, this stranger to them all, is it something I said, or is it nothing after all. I know that I’m different, but what else could I be, is it so surprising when I’m lost within my grief. For my world’s turned upside down and I can’t find my way, is it any wonder, because I’m lost without a trace. How can I give comfort, when it’s comfort that I need. How can I tell others, when I can hardly speak. How do I stop this crying, that never wants to cease. How do I hide my sorrow, when other bring me cheer, do I tell them they'er not needed, for I am doing fine, just to watch the relief, as it escapes from out their minds.

This is so appropriate and well written. It delves deep into the loss and yet indicates the strength that will pull one up again. Well done! Again little grammar tricks will polish it up. ‘their not needed’ will become ‘they’re not needed’; the possessive ‘ their minds’ is correct however; and you may mean ‘ ‘if…they’d just leave me’.
