Widow In The Dark

Dreamt of you again

Seemed so real

Intimacy relived

Warmth of an embrace

Seeing your face

Feeling your skin

True happiness within

Reaffirming that you’ll never leave

Please stay

Always there

Yet I’m deeply bereaved

You will only remain

In my hourglass

Past time capsules

Bits and pieces of diamond sand

Glistening like sparkles in the night sky

Twinkling constantly reminding me why

I’m left grasping on to a memory

While they are slipping through my hand

Keeping ashes in silver jewelry

Once always worn everyday

Heaviness still feels me

In every way

past pictures put away now

I’m unable to look at them for long

don’t know how

It still hurts too much

when I hear a song and such

looking at Quotes on a windowsill

still feeling an emptiness inside

Overwhelming constant rain

On A daily life

Tears are hard to contain

Keeping it all together

Moving forward

trying to sustain

Remaining just a Widow In The Dark

Weaving webs to comfort

the loneliness inflicted

Teetering on the edge of sanity

Intense suffering to undergo

Imagining at times

that I’m not Injured

How much can a soul withstand

There is tragic prolonging

Questions consume

eating away Inside my head

Why am I left alive

when you are dead

-Black Widow
