Alone Again

Traces of her kisses left a deep emptiness in
my heart and a harsh reality in my  mind, 
the love I once knew had become barren and cold.

                                          I AM ALONE AGAIN.

My thoughts now are of confusion and blame
faulting my own actions wondering if I was too
needy, was I the reason she left me so broken.

                                         DAMN!! ALONE AGAIN.

Torn from the change, my thoughts and emotions
wage a civil revolution on the battlefield of 
my soul tearing me in two. Which shall I follow?

                                         ALONE ONCE AGAIN.

No matter what path I choose reality still shows
that my road appears grim and desolate. No choice 
will make it any clearer or hide the fact that

                                         I AM ALONE AGAIN.

This is the anatomy of a break up. Sad but very true, with the stages you go through. Nicely written. Laurie

I like this form very much while it brings forth the sufering and tragedy that befalls the subject. This is composed very well, though a sad write. Michael
