The Loneliness Without----------

Heartache

'The Loneliness Without ------!'
To be numbed, to your empty trembling heart,
Thoughts and words, run wild within your head,
Your one true love, in unfaithful haste, did depart
You dare not say, that now your love is dead.

These naked lines I lay, to stay until the day
When thoughts unscrambled, time made clear
Your lips, the full and loving epitaph may say.
So write these lines, for one you once held dear!

When your sorrowed message is complete,
No one will know the similarities we hold.
But if, by fateful chance, you and I shall meet,
Please, do not your words from me withhold.
