Hearts Apart Poem by Isunge Mwangase

One blink, a single breath separates you and i,
I weep, never imagined i possessed so many tears
you lie six feet under, our soul disjointed.
You have taken all of me, why not too this heart?
It lies with me, void, consumed by mysery
its every beat, a grasp at fading memory.
Everyone tells me that time heals all, even you.
When we meet in another life, pass past me,
For my spirit will not survive an encore of this.
On that day, forgive me for breathing without you,
Goodbye forever; rest in peace.
