... And you bid this mortal world adieu! (Poetry)

... Leaving a gaping void,1

In this heart that has managed to stay buoyed.2

... Left alone in the lurch,3

I searched, but in vain, for my Lords church.4

... It seemed your job was done,5

For our string had come undone.6

You departed from my soul,7

... Leaving behind a living ghoul.8

I was but shattered, grimacing in agony and pain;9

... Ne'er would I be the same again!10

I cry alone, here forlorn...11

Now, that you are forever gone.12

My cries have now reduced to a sob.13

... The heart, still wincing, continues to throb...14

I miss you loads, downcast I remain;15

Ah... Good times do but little to anodyne that inner pain.16

I'd always tried, to be the perfect lover...17

But all I wish now- to be united with you forever!18

A time will come, whence I too shalt rest.19

Ne'er again... Shalt we remain at His behest...

    Is this about God? Other than small piece of confusion, i love it. It may be depressing but it expresses the feelings well. Awesome job!

      Nope... I dunno what made you feel it's about God, friend. It's just the last line, where he/she feels life can sometimes be so unjust, cruel, etc. And as all the frustration culminates; it's only too human to feel that- in death, you and your departed loved-one are united forever...

      Glad you liked it.

      Peace.
