The world has faded into an eclipse <br />As someone steals the breath from her lips <br />The nectar that was us can no longer be <br />As what was her has now been set free <br />The night has deepened to a somber dusk <br />As we no longer know of the bond called trust <br />The forbidden tears well in my eyes <br />As the heavens melt to starlit skies <br /> <br />Lonely once more, <br />My forever-long bane <br />Without the comfort of her, <br />How shall I stay sane?<br /><br />Timothy Weiermann<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/without-comfort/
