One Last Breath

Man’s worst death is that by words.

Words from those most unexpected.

Unimaginable confusion fills my soul.

Physically strong is my appearance.

Emotionally destroyed is my reality.

Inner pain at an unknown level,

Swells from head to toe.

Bonds of invaluable meaning,

Now appear frayed and uncertain.

Love—the true cause of unspeakable grief,

Dealt by the hands of those so dear.

Hope, it seems, has looked upon me in disgust,

For he shows little anxiety in my anguish.

Yet my spirit grows cold, and urges wrath.

My soul, no longer confused,

For the love dwelling there for so long,

Has breathed its last breath.

Alone I stand, left by those who shattered my will,

To move on in search of she who will rescue me.

I want to cry out for the one so dear,

Yet the bitter coating of love’s demise,

Has overtaken my heart.

The heat of her passion—desperately needed,

To melt the icy wall inhibiting my will,

To love.
