Jenna Logan Poet Rhyme

A Dying Ember

Without the comfort of your hand to hold
   Aimlessly, I wander about in the dark
No hint of warning had been foretold
   I am a dying ember without a spark

Forbearance and faith is what I need
   and a love so true that I might heal
My painful wound continues to bleed
   Emotional heartache, I cannot conceal
