Thoughts on Grief XXVIII

There are many words for
Alone:
Solo, Companionless
Deserted, Desolate
Forsaken, Lonesome
Unattached, Widowed

In solitude I feel
My love here with me
But my heart hurts more
With the overwhelming
Realization that
I am alone

People say
“You are not alone.”
But that’s an illusion

60 days tomorrow
Since my Love
Passed
I
Am
Alone
