EMPTINESS

TITLE TELLS THE STORY

 

EMPTINESS

An emptiness engulfs me.

I’m feeling so all alone.

Suns rays no longer warm me.

I’m chilled right to the bone.

 

I’m searching for your body.

What once I knew was near.

Seems as I reach out for you .

Your breathing I can hear.

 

But its only your pillow

That comforts me now.

Trying hard to forget you

But really don’t know how.

 

Your scent I can't diminish

It permeates my very soul.

Your not a dying ember

But a burning piece of coal.

 

I have tried so very hard

To get you off my mind.

But this damn memory

Is not so very kind.

 

The lord gave us a memory

So we would not forget.

Wish sometimes it would fade

Then change to a living vignette
