Heartache

There is that sadness of grief that creeps in, tight and oppressive, squeezing the very beat of the heart drawing it in, in unspeakable pain and heartache as it struggles for breath, understanding, logic, only to breathe in exasperated sobbing gasps denying the acceptance of an inexpressible loss that clutches clings and lingers to forge a forever in the memory of you gone.
