Distraught Alone and In Despair

Listen to poem:
i miss you 
so much more than
words could ever tell
a throbbing ache
throughout my body
resonating shuddering
how i need you near

what cruel fate
tore us apart
leaving me abandoned
to face a darkened future

only the thought of your touch
brings comfort to my heart
endless tears refusing to subside

This could apply to all kinds of heartbreak, separation, divorce, and even death.

This is such a powerful and touching poem on grief and loss. Unfortunately we all suffer these heart breaking emotions and feelings at some point in life. And most of all with the death of a dear loved one. There is comfort and solace in the precious memories of love shared. And time does ease the pain of separation.
