He Loves Me No More

Because he no more loves me, 
I will have to go back to my solitude - 
my only friend, before I met him. 
Now, today after many years in love 
he is throwing my adoration 
through a severe hurricane; 
forgetting to protect me. 
My man - the only man 
I have ever loved; 
he no more loves me. Why? 

Suddenly, all my expectations 
dissolved, disappeared; 
gone to another continent, 
even to another atmosphere - 
anywhere, but here with me. 
He no more loves me. Why? 

How I wish, this very moment 
to be invisible, 
As my dreams and thoughts 
are turning into hatred. 
He no more loves me. Why? 

Sobbing is echoing louder 
than the silence surrounding 
my dark room. 
I will be living patiently out of love. 

He no more loves me. 
I am never included in any of his plans, 
neither those of yesterday, today, or tomorrow. 
How I wish to remember 
only the good times we had together; 
but now, there is no present or future 
Because he loves me no more. 
Why? 
I am old, and have not 
Much time left.

I can feel you Theresa. To lose a life long love is one of the hardest things we can endure. Be strong. Friends and your faith will carry you when you feel weak. Be blessed Tim
