Interior Ocean Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Crying through the night, missing you, this heart having
fallen onto the floor of my soul, bereft and forsaken,
alone in the darkness.

Living is now hell without you by my side, wanting so much
to be in your arms, loving and being loved, a beautiful
feeling I want to have again.

Desires rising, but no one to fulfill or quench them any
longer, day and night, tears falling into depths of an
interior ocean.

A lifetime of togetherness now over, alone, a solitary
figure, devastated and wanting to be with you only, my
love.
