Death Where Are You

Fraught, distressed, my love forlorn! Ripped to shreds, my emotions torn! Without you, I rue the day I was born! Death where are you? I seek solitude, make the wilderness mine. My love lost to one so out of line. Breathless, love can be so unkind! Death where are you? I wander into unknown places forsaken Will my heart heal, once unkindly taken? Misused, abused, I am totally shaken! Death where are you? My destiny now to wander this wilderness. Do I still love that faithless lass? Oh yes! My brain is mushed, my life a cruel mess! Death where are you? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 5/12/18 Rhyme and Refrain - Poetry Contest sponsored by Broken Wings
