Why Did Death Choose You? Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Searching high and low for the treasure chest of your
sacred heart, wanting to feel your love within me again.

Love you gave filled mine with sensations, temptations,
and desires that brought us so close to one another.

Wish I could understand what happened to us, why'd death
suddenly choose you, why not me or someone else in life.

Losing you has torn a hole in my heart so deep that it
cannot ever be filled again.

How can I even try to go on anymore, with you gone from
my life, now it's a vast void of emptiness and nothing
more than that.
