Love Poem: Homecoming

Homecoming

I came home that night 
To a house in the dark
The soot was everywhere, 
The fire's art

Everything  touched 
A reminder
Of everything that had been 
All things perceived
I couldnt believe 
That you did this to me. 

Something in me died that night
Was it my love or was it my hope
I always thought that we would make it through

In my naivety I truly believed 
That love conquered all 
That we would win
And that no illness on earth 
Would ever intervene
Now I sit and I ask myself
Where is my peace
That will set me free?
