Morbid Thoughts

Pain

Sorrow hidden deep in my soul

poverty of love I seem to know

escape my heart looks for

anything

an open window, an open door

sadness has become so common

I have made it a friend

In this hall of misery there

seems to be no end

tears crawl slowly down

the side of my face

I only want a small place

in your life

to end my grief

to end my stife

Why did you go leaving this

empty space between my arms?

Leaving my soul open for

endless harm

Could a cupid of the highest

rank replace what we had?

Or were we just a gap in time?

Come and gone like a fad

the need for you in my life

show's itself through my

torment and my pain

What must I do to get you

back in my life again?

This is so poignant and you can feel the profound sadness that you have about this lady in your life. I hope that if this is for your wife, you will soon be feeling peace within, and that your arms will no longer be empty. Always know your poetic family is embracing you through our hearts and with our souls. I wish for you happiness and love with your family and sons. Much love and respect to one good man such as yourself, upholding the laws of life and love~
From an avid admirer of your work, Rachel
