A Poem of Loss and Grief

In the depths of sadness, I find myself
For the one I loved has gone away
And my heart is filled with disbelief

The tears fall like raindrops from my eyes
As I remember the memories we shared
Of the love that we once dared

And hold onto the moments we shared
But the pain in my heart is a constant reminder
That you're no longer here

The world goes on without you
But it will never be the same
For the love we had was a once in a lifetime
And now it's just a bittersweet name

So I say goodbye to the one I loved
And hold onto the memories we made
For the pain in my heart may never leave
But your love will never fade.
