How Can It Be

Grief engulfs in endless waves of sadness. It's scathing presence pulling me to madness. How can it be that you're no longer here? I can't forget you, Life is what I fear. Pretending that I'm fine but I am not. I search for you in crowds, Are you just lost? To something I must face I know it's true. We live, we die I can't get over you. Please rid me of this love that's killing me. Can't shake the loss of you, I cannot see. A future without you, so endlessly. I want you back, but know that cannot be. Jayne Louise Davies
