Remnants Poem by Cynthia Buhain-baello

Agonizing memories
Afflict the crushed, saddened soul
Fleeting thoughts of intimacies,
Shades of love no longer whole.

Sweet fragrances and scent -
With soft music, their own song,
Witness now that love is absent,
Tell her where she once belonged.

Letters left are now tear-stained
Photographs like ghosts of past,
Remains of a heart deeply pained
Remnants of a love that was.
