Gone

In your private life

When you lose someone to

Death or

Divorce or

Drugs

It can feel like your heart

Is caving in

As your mind realizes

Your life will never be the same

Without that person

All hope gone for the plans

You made together

Grief, sorrow, anger, love,

Memories

All mix together forming

Utter sadness

Sometimes

You heal

Other times

You do not

Even when you hold onto

Belief that God knows best

The sadness

Clouds your mind

Engulfs your heart

As you watch your private life

Fall completely apart
