Notes About The Poem

Pain of divorce never goes away. Grief hit hard from her passing even after so many years apart. My son is all that matters

Lost

I’m so lost
I don’t know the direction I’m going
It feels so lonely being away from you
I’m here dreaming life with you

It’s different 
Losing myself to you
It’s a matter of time
If my dreams for us come true

I use to know the path 
Meet the girl
Marry her
Have a family 

But it’s all been destroyed

Now I’m lost
Since the day 
You asked for a divorce 

You’re gone now
My hate for you is gone
All of what you put me through 
It hurt like hell

After years past 

You left this world leaving our son with me
Now I’m putting his heart back together 
We are both lost
