My Despair

Alas, my love has gone away; my heart is filled with despair. I feel my life has turned to grey like storm clouds fill the autumn air. Soon as the dreaded storm sets in, my lonely heart takes harbor until the healing can begin, before this misery goes much farther.

My wife cares for her ailing father part time; this is how I feel whenever she is leaving for three days. When she returns my feelings are just the opposite. My writing sometimes reflects my mood so you can tell if she is leaving or if she is coming home. Have a great day my friend!
