In Need

The loss of love

strikes the heart.

In rough times, 

I become lost.

What can I do?

Where can I go from here?

I must find solace, 

but that too 

is nowhere to be found.

Eventually, I find myself

in darkness and isolation

waiting for a light to shine through.

I may not know where I will be headed,

but I know that I will find comfort 

down the road ahead of me.

I may have little to carry me

through the journey that I will embark on,

but I have hope.
