My Confusion

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?
