Dwayne Bailey Poet I do not know?

Separation

I don't know exactly what I am feeling, Numbness maybe so; 
But deep inside I feel a pain, one I have yet to know. 
I thought our love was meant to be, blessed by God himself on high; 
Now in my heart there is only bitterness, and tears they fill my eye. 

Seventeen years I have been blessed, to have you by my side; 
as my friend and soul mate, with whom I could confide; 
But now my world is shattered, my life taken before my very eyes; 
Your heart to me it seems so cold, love for me it seems has died. 

Maybe this is all Im worth, maybe my karma has caught up to me; 
maybe God has turned his back, and cursed now I must be. 
I have never felt such pain, stabbing my heart to my very soul; 
breaking me down from my very core, and gouging a deep dark hole. 


I now pray daily, that I can just get past the pain; 
To the anger bitterness and rage, so I can again feel sane. 
For I now fear the future, alone it seems I now must be; 
Depression is starting to take a hold, my mind is no place for me
