Without Rhyme Or Reason
Love and Loss
No part of me exists without the pain
For love and loss have hastened my demise
No longer to be cleansed by falling rain
Nor energised by darkened starlit skies
A fragment deep within may never heal
Despite all efforts made on my behalf
And grateful for attempts to help me feel
Unable still to simply cry or laugh
In saying this, there's still hope in my heart
That one day soon I'll be made whole again
New journeys being planned and yet to start
And friendships old and new will still remain
Its true to say that something simply died
It's also true to say I never cried
