Where are you?
You were just here
filling my heart
touching my soul.
Who were you?
Your words of love
made me believe
there was a forever.
What happened to you?
The smiles are gone.
No more soft touches
that made my heart swell.
How do I endure
the ache in my chest,
the pain of loss,
too acute to bear?
Why did you leave me
to fend for myself,
existing in a fog,
wandering alone?
