Forever Now
 
 I will be forever now
      more broken that she is gone.
 Forever now more taunted, more hopeless,
 More pleading for her mercy,
 More aimless and sullen,
 More shattered and unloved.

 And I will be forever now
      more needing her that she is gone.
 A trifle of her smile will linger.
 A hint of her voice will flash somewhere. 
 A whisper of the past will grasp
 At silence (forever now).
