I was once happy im sure
i dont remember it
but it must have been
before they died

One at a time
everyone I loved
everything I loved
came to an end

The tears may roll
but they stay inside
i no longer have
those tears to cry

The very deep did rot: O Christ!
That ever this should be!
Yea, slimy things did crawl with legs
Upon the slimy sea.

~There are many new people and things to find and love,...my heart aches for this. (and sometimes I think that I should listen to myself). *Peace.

I'm sorry for your loss. You've expressed your feelings very well here. It's a sad poem, well written.
