Ecstatic poetry

Blue Embers

words fall empty silent

pained into the

altar fires

life without You

an unbearable cross to bear

ash is smeared across my forehead

but not just for Lent

now I wear the

tattered rags and carry the begging

bowl of Shiva

even the crematory dust of my

bones

shiver in the hereafter

for one blessed whisper from the

lips

of

my beloved

A cry from the soul...
Endings are always painful, however they happen..however what I have learned
Is that we do adjust to these painful happenings...even if we don't want to!
Such is the human condition...
A beautiful, sad poem...
Diana....
