Letter To My Angel

Silence has been my bed mate
since you left me in solitude
I'm gradually sinking
into my own mind

your absence has victimized me
I'm alone carrying a load of memories
deep down in my heart
I'm choked in fury

what is true for me right now
I'm at the crossroads
my thoughts and emotions
are now dying slowly

my taste of love
my quest to live in love
is strangled, muted
I'm now unsound

Grief

Leaves open wounds which bare our souls. You have captivated the loneliness left behind when we lose someone we love and the struggle to move on. Well done.

Yeah!

Thanks Rose for stopping by. You nailed it.
