Caroline Cécile Delacroix Poet Free verse

Since You Went Away

Blow after blow
 upon the throbbing heart
 and my torn in half soul 
since you went away.
 
Wish you could have stayed
 a little longer
 if only a crane could take me
away from here
 help me catch up with you.
 
I'm alive beside you
 you are the compass 
that guided me through
 many a difficult impasse 
don't know if I can brave
 these rough seas that have hit
 my shores since you went away.

 I know you will be with me
 but I miss your funny ways
 that have helped me through
 many a storm along the way.
 
Blow after blow
 upon my throbbing heart
 and my torn in half soul 
since you went away.
