Lost

Lost

Again I come to a blank state

No words come to mind

Words to ease

Words to sooth

Nothing

~

Lost in confusion

Lost in disappointment

Lost in sorrow

Lost in pain

Lost

~

As great is my pain

She is so much more

My confusion cannot

Compared to her

Panic

~

What she has long for

For so long

In her life

Is coming

Death

~

Years ago she was told

It was starting to eat

At her being

Fix it now or

Die

~

She had bought into

That old cliché

Life was over

When you are forty

Forty

~

Now she knows

That life can

Just begin

At forty not

End

~

But too late

The change of heart

To late the desire

To late the wish to

Live

~

Left with a little time

Time to regret

Time to make amends

So little time to make peace

Left

~

But my time

Is yet to be defined

My life stretches ahead

To and unknown

End

~

I lived most of my

Life without her

And will have to

Live the rest without

Her

~

But my life

Can never be the same

I cannot ever again

Dream that

Dream

~

Sadness smote me

Confusion racks me

Pain embraces me

Peace eludes

Me

~

So I come to this state of mind

No though can ease

No words can help

Me to bear the

Unbearable

~
