Helpless…..
     …….Lost

watching the curtain slowly fall
the stage is now empty.
The actors left, the scene is unnerving.
Nothing is heard but the sound of a single heartbeat
Racing and thumping fast
A silent cry within her chest
And a nightmare that has begun to manifest.

All the colors were once so vivid
The nights were so clear
Together they danced on that stage
And pulled eachother near

An embrace that lasts an eternity
Or so she can only hope
Perhaps the play will have an encore
Or perhaps, karma will even the score.

She hugs herself tightly
As a tear falls down her cheek
Closing her eyes she whispers softly
Words she can not repeat…

Go to her and take what is needed
Allow her to give you what I can not
Know I will forever be with you
And loving you, always true.

Dropping her head in her hands she weeps softly
Confusion and sadness seems overwhelming
Silently praying for death to take her
Into that other world…..
………where she knows…….

He will rejoin her and eliminate her woes.
