Her love proved insufficient,
or , worse, illusory.
So you struggle bravely on alone
towards your Calvary.
Remember One who, too ,faced death
abandoned by his friends.
He, too, felt forsaken,
and cried out at the end.
We prisoners all face one fate.
It is our common link.
We all will share this cup of pain
that you are forced to drink.
Yet In this charnel house of Earth
another lies alone.
One, like you, that a
lack of Love has struck a fatal blow.
An evil illness stalks your days
but Love lives in your heart.
bring Love to an unloved one,
and you will have played your part.
