Desolate Sadness
Thought I knew
what love was
until there was
you.
Now that you’re
gone
I see what
is true
love severs your soul
love runs you through.
My tears
are raining
staining
all that I see
such depths
of despair Gods
the agony!
my heart is
shattered
battered
tattered
torn
desolate anguish
within me is born.
I flew too
high to the
sun
a flight of Icarus
come undone.
Withering dying
moaning sighing
wailing crying
cannot grasp reality
cannot accept this
casualty.
Crushed and broken
words unspoken
you simply pivoted
tore away
never turned back
even to say
“it’s over.”
Death of
love
so alone
my heart obliterated
I turn to stone.
