River of Sorrows

A Poetic Affirmation

I often wonder if you cry
Alone at night thinking about
Us because what we shared never
Meant enough for you in this birth.

I often wonder if you cry
Alone at night thinking about
The ways I used to embrace your touch
But you wanted to share the same space
With someone else.
