Sounds Of Loss Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Softly, silently grasping onto a melody of sadness reverberating
within, touching heartstrings of sorrow, playing them gently with
sounds of loss that inspire this poetical mind.

Divining answers that never seem to come, no understanding telling
what's going on in this desperate situation of grief, having a
tight hold upon my being.

Searching through the years, looking for you my dear, yet never
hearing an answering call of love that I continually whisper to
you in dreams at nightfall.

Sorrow dripping onto pillows as I lie sleeping, imagining being
held and holding you my love, nothing coming into being, as I
continue to miss you everlastingly.

Memories always providing what we used to have, but they don't
give the total love that you always gave to me through the years,
my darling.

An eerie sadness that will not let go, ensuring that I will never,
ever forget you, my dear, a lasting impression forever etched
upon this mind and heart.

A delicate and most important facet left of the love we used to
have, solely living in the past now, not wanting to progress into
another tomorrow without you, yet somehow I find myself doing so,
missing you always and forever, my love.
