At Times Poem by Ashley Proulx

At times you feel pain so strongly it rips you apart in ways you never thought possible.
All you wanted was to be loved
All you ever longed for was someone to hold you tight through these long lonely nights.
No matter how hard you try, how much you keep believing you wonder if there really is anyone out there who truly cares.
I’ve lost the man I though to be my soul mate, he misled me the day he took my hand in marriage.
Although I have started a new life I can’t help but fear the inevitable approaching ready to knock on my door.
Have I found the love I have longed for or will I suffer again once more by the pains of heartache.
How long will I have to wait and anticipate my fate.
Should I end my suffering now or endure this pain forever and fall into the shadows of the divine mourning of my dying heart.
My happiness has ended and the reality has violently hit me that my heart cannot and will not ever be mended…
