Silent Heart Breaking Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Silent heart breaking as the sun rises, startling
nighttime dreams of happiness with the reality of
your death.

No more good morning kisses, no hugs, breakfast
eaten alone from now on, no smiles across the
table, or looking at one another.

Life has departed from within, there is no more
love or joy, all have been taken from me, now I am
no more, every day is the same as the one before.

Not wanting you to feel bad, forgiving you for
leaving me alone, not wanting to sadden you, like
I have been saddened by your loss.

Silent heart breaking as the sun rises, finding
that I never did go to sleep last night, just
wanting to remember everything about you.

Touching my mind with your heart as intellect writes
all feelings and emotions into poetry of the reality
of your death.
