Buried My Lover

I didn't physically bury, My lover, today. I buried my heart That is lost & fraid. I buried a soul, That's withered away. I buried a love, That's departed astray. I buried a mind, That is lost, in space. I buried a spirit, That use to have grace. I've buried a beauty, That's faded with age. My heart, mind, body & soul I surrender...I live no more...

This is a deep and heart wrenching write. You allow the reader to feel your pain and anguish in each line. Nice job

I'm sure we all sit and examine ourselves from time to time. This is a strong write. Every individual is treasure to someone or another. Don't be too hard on yourself. :)
