Days Of Darkness

Laying listening to calming music, emptiness is within me.
Now i fully realise that i am nothing without her and darkness descends into me like midnight across the world, like a shadow in the moonlight.

Nothing rouses me from the ever darkening blackness of my mind.
I retreat to my book and solitude, ah solitude, something i am more keenly aware of than most, it stalks me like the Reaper on a stormy night.

Alone without soulmate or anyone, my life now resigned to the ultimate fate.
How we would have been, how we could have been, but the waters of time have rushed down stream and are disappearing into the distant horizon.

What grace, what mirth, what consumate love and happiness we could have had.
The miracle would have been a dream come true,a dream filled with kind realism, not superficial crudety, a dream filled with the kindest of love and all encompassing passion.

Only in my death will this love die.
Afterwards the world will still be the same,but my spirit and the deepest love held in my life, will be breathed in by others, who will love with my fervour.

My body screams, it cries angusihed gutteral utterances.
Life force drains from me, i have nothing now, the darkness draws near and is ready to devour.

Where once i had a heart filled with love, red and bold, now it is white and without blood.
My breathing is shallow, the air is stale.

Where once i strode with confidence only love can give, now i shuffle with the style of one unacostomed to confidence.
To a shadow of my former self i now do pale.

Never will i love like that again. The brand burns deep and the scar will be indelibly marked into my very heart, my very soul, my very being.

Lonely nights of restlessness are now what i expect.
Dark doleful days with no mercy will be what i am seing.

a bittersweet melody, written with true heart and feeling, but cheer up for there is great purpose in every second of your life. We as humans simply protest to those things we cannot have...but surely if we had been given them, perhaps we wouldn't have complemented them at that time???? I dunno? Just my thoughts

Phil, this was very moving. Well said of a broken heart; love is like that when it touches the core of our being. I wish you sunshine.

well written Phil...I know how this feels and can give you no suggestions on how to overcome those feelings, as I deal with them on and off and wonder when they will end, myself.
