Goodbye, My Love

A poem on grieving the loss of a partner

Illustration by Emily Madsen

The shadow of my hallowed pain. Conceals darkness of our hidden shame. There is no one here left for me to blame.

I witnessed you tame my soul’s inner rage. Together we endured life’s forgiving cage.

A life of wills you wasted grace. For sorrow’s shadow past our embrace. Another heartache, a new phase.

Witness love resurrected, yet. Apart I wept until our souls met.

In death, you parted till another day. I will find you again on clouds of grey. Then we will fall asleep to come what may.
