Taken From Me

The stars at night no longer shine so bright.

For my love as been taken from me.

My life no longer holds meaning, not even what's wrong or right.



Death came on swift wings and broke my heart.

It is I who am being punished, so why did he have to die?

Why did God insist that we so violently depart?



How will I live on without you?

Tis my soul you brought down.

So undenyingly petrified am I that I speak only what is true.



I cried so hard that my eyes bled.

The good lord came to me then.

I was surprised and yet filled with such dread.



"It is simply a cliche, my child, but it is better to have loved and lost, than to have never loved at all."


Author's Notes/Comments: 

This is an attempt at rhyming. It's not great, I know. However, it helped express a thought, so that's all that counts. Hope you like it.

Hello again,
Good job with the rhyming. I know it's not your best area, but it's not bad. I hope you try to do some more soon.
Peace Out,
Much Love,
Irish
