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

It is a blessing having you at Poetry Soup, Jenna. Writings like this with its depth of emotion in loss and loneliness, along with your carefully crafted rhythm and rhyme is why. "I am a dying ember without a spark". Keep writing such beauties, poetess!

A beautiful sad verse longing for a lost love, Jenna, though I am sure you are anything but a "dying ember." Nicely written my friend. Hugs, John
