Heart-broken
By the loss of a love
So profound that even Heaven
Was brightened by its light.
The angels are weeping.
My soul dims
and being fades
perhaps to nothingness . . .
I care not.
The Universe is lessened
By a power of two
And we are all diminished.
I stand alone
In infinite sadness.
Bubble creatures are gone.
Dolphins lie dead in my arms.
Hippos drown in the sea
And darkness envelops Eternity.
Cry for me.
Cry for us all.
