A Sad Poem

Heart burning deep

With an ember fire

Scars run deeper

Enveloping my very sense of self.

I feel lost without you

Because you were meant to be in my life forever

They say blood is thicker than water

Then how did you slip from my palms so easily

How did I not see the warning signs?

It drains the energy from my soul

Thinking about all the mistakes

That led me to losing you

But those mistakes are all I have to hold

Now that you're gone.

The darkness sets in

I lose my way

Help me find you again.
