Love
Loneliness
Love and Loneliness
(A poem with borrowed lines)
To say
we were in love is an understatement
To see
you laying so peacefully makes my heart ache
To realize
You left without a word of farewell*, leaves me broken inside
To taste
the tears running down my face is a reminder of how much I miss you
To know
I shall love thee better after death**, eases my soul
just a little

To know
I shall love thee better after death**, eases my soul
