Of late___
The sunshine has been in limited supply
seems the rain is mostly forecast
Even the Vodka has lost its appeal to me
for I am struggling and can't consume
enough to keep my mind from drowning....
Your poetry is all there is remaining of you
for my lonely grieving heart and hands to touch
and even that is not enough
to prevent my feeling the darkness
as It calls to me daily
from just the other side of the door....
You entered there two years ago
and left me here alone___
