A dark day dawns
On her doorstep,
Loosing a loved one,
She stares into the abyss.
I want to help,
Out of reach,
Feeling helpless
In the dusk of night.
Offering companionship
She pulls away,
Wanting to slip
Into her grief.
I ask for help,
She does not.
A future wife?
I wonder aloud
How to cope
With suicide?
She wanders aimlessly,
Not reaching for
The one she says
To be her future,
Her home, her family,
Im forgotten!
