Love Poem: Abandoned

Abandoned

Abandoned again I walk alone at the edge of my understanding, 
Answers sought in the haze beyond, but none found.

Alive to the pain of my undoing, yet no relief do I seek in forgetfulness,
For small price it is indeed, to cherish those few moments.

Heartache fills quiet moments, 
But trade not would I one moment of past sublime, 
For release from this present anguish. 

Her desire for me remembered deepens my sorrow, 
That loss pounds loud in my chest.

As before, I watch for a message announcing her return,
Hoping all the while that it does not arrive.
