Being Without You

I do not know how the rest of the days will be, but I know they will be without you, I do lovingly caress pillow beside me, and shed tears at emptiness I see, when I walk past memory lane near rose garden, I feel my heart tug and feet harden, when the rain thunders in, washes bedroom window, still draw curtains so you wouldn’t know, sometimes I sit in our garden swing, all alone, and think of that shared icecream cone, Lost love in life is such a deep grief to endure, only time can heal, may slowly cure.... 3rd placement written 25/04/2021 Grief in 12 lines Line Gauthier sponsored syllable count 12, 9 alternate lines
