Mourning Poem by Colin Ian Jeffery

Never understood love until there was you
Bringing hope and joy, forging us soulmates.
New world opening with smiles and laughter
Such passion with orgasmic pleasure
Astonishing me with each kiss and caress.
You were the core and joy of my life
Now gone before your time with cancer.
Grief overwhelms my days and nights
Making me howl fierce against the loneliness
With purple storms ravaging unabated.
All that was beautiful has been destroyed
Now only ashes where flowers flourished.
I endure the atrocious blows of grief
Kneeling at your grave weeping in despair.
