My words get lost
in the chill of the morning
as memories of you blow through me,
a sudden wind that gives no warning.

What do I do
with a day like today?
I am lonely and missing you
and wonder why you couldn't stay.

March is gone now so
I shouldn't still be feeling this way.

I suppose you'll never know it,
how deep the pain you caused,
you took the easy way out
and my entire life paused.

It comes hard every March,
dwindling down through April and May,
being lonely and missing you,
wondering why you couldn't stay.

Though I wish you would not suffer anymore, I must admit that your poems about this lost love are impressively well done, dear Dixie poetess.

Love and hugs.

"March is gone now so

your "lost love" poems do bring on a certain mood Dixie

this one is heartrending

OH Dixie, your comments about your mom brought me to the verge of tears. What a tragic sad memory to have to revisit each Spring. Warm hugs to you, dear poet.
