' The days were not as bright
the nights not so dark
each splendid whole certain thing
had all been torn apart.
The hopes for something true
the dream of sky's all blue
of a world of blissful things~
that make the spirit strong
the heart soar...
had been taken away
with just the thought of losing you. '

Shelley L Baxter Stanley
