A song forms-
aperfect melody.
Beneathe the darkning sky,
you lie in wait.
What you wait for will never come,
that thing you long for can
never be and for that-
I'm sorry.
I apologize for your loss,
it struck you without warning,
the hopeless guilt creeping slowly,
into your thoughts.
It isn't your fault,
no matter what you think,
you could not have prevented it,
so sing a song...
Sing the lullaby,
while you wake,
and sing the melody,
in your dreams,
and we will forever sing,
the song of love and loss.
--I'm sorry--
Author notes
I am so sorry for your loss, hun. I know how hard that must be on you. I apologize.
