He Was Gone

Adam was gone. . .Lost to us - its suddeness Was cruel - And our lives change in That instant - Reality - Distorted beyond The grasp of our understanding - Our world that was. . .No longer is Adam was gone. . .Everything seemed To go into slow motion - Time stood Sill for an endless second as the Grief throbbed inside my chest - My Heart ached so badly that it Robbed me of my ability to think Adam was gone. . .And as always Happens in the wake of that realization I am left in the blackened depths Of the greatest sadness of my life Adam was gone. . .And as I lay Here in the cold lonely cell - I wondered If we will ever get past the anger - Past The protest or the endless stream of tears And heartbreak Adam was gone. . .And finally I understand that the toll of our Loneliness runs far deeper than Anyone could ever imagine
