Confusion
I look up
to the stars
that used
to bring such comfort
connecting
us as one across the miles.
I see their
shining brightness
their beauty
and their sparkle
and I lower
my tear filled eyes to the ground.
What happened
to the love and caring
we shared
just days ago?
How does
the heart change so rapidly.
Question
upon question.
Thoughts
full of angry pain.
Wondering
if I’ll ever trust again.
You asked
me for my heart,
I gave it
willingly.
You said
you would safeguard it for all time.
But it’s
in shambles now.
Torn, tattered,
it’s edges raw.
The seams
ripped apart and left unmended.
In sleep
I hold you close,
my dreams
are painted with love
but awake
my arms reach out to find you gone.
My heart
aches each waking minute,
My cheeks
are moist with painful tears,
They stream
from my eyes and pour from my soul.
My love,
my friend, my soul’s companion,
what took
my heart from yours
and changed
the certainty of tomorrow into the
confusion
of today?
