The Epitaph Of Love Poem by Heather Delhom

Pits! Pits!
Nothing but pits!
I sit and I wait.
I wait and I sit.

Do I jump? Do I Dive?
Do I just fall in?
Don’t know where I’m going,
Just where I’ve been.

Incessant memories
Plague every thought.
A lifetime of living
Can never be taught.

Controversy and confusion
These demons I know.
They haunt me and taunt me
Wherever I go.

Feels like I’m spinning
Out of control.
Something is missing-
Never feel whole.

“Somebody save me! ”
I shout and I scream!
But nobody hears me-
It’s useless it seems.

Solitude is sovereign,
But it comes with a price.
No one to comfort
Your worries and strife.

My plate is half empty;
My glass is half full.
Don’t know whether
To push or to pull.

One day, someday
Comes the answer I seek.
My heart is heavy
And my knees are weak.

But hope lies inside
A heart pure and true.
Just like the love
I have given to you.

So remember today
If tomorrow won’t be-
When love is shared,
Your heart will return to me.
