Appeared you did, Into my life, At a time, my soul, Was prone to pain. For my heart, Was still in chains, From the past, Tortured moments. Where scars and aches, Were left behind, Walked away I did, With this shell of a man. Warned by, Treachery and misery, From a woman, With her, perfidious ways. Broke my heart, she did, Leaving me, without a soul, Till this very day. By: William Bonilla 10/08/02

Yes, William, I get a sense of being overwhelmingly crushed here. This is a sad one. Definitely a poem written in that transition period where all is doom and there's no hope on the horizon. A truly human moment we've all felt at least once.
Love and Hugs,
Sheila
