Piece of Serenity

You held me and wrapped me with warmth and love in my darkest hours. Oh how I need you to soothe me now. So much loss. So many lost to me. How I wish I could be in your gentle embrace softly bouncing up and down. I would spend hours with you letting my heart sort letting you ease my pains and sorrows. I did not willingly let you go. I did not abandon you. Yet I am to be lost and alone forever. Without your gentle touch and your calm what am I? A mere memory? A phantom? A lost dream? I gaze at you in pictures but it is just a reflection of what you were. You do not live and breathe as you did before. Your face fades from my memory a little more each day as the last tendrils of your love slip from my soul. Oh my treasured one, how do I find peace now without you?

a long time ago
