Six Months Later
        by Puzzled Poet  (newlight@Writing.Com)
Our love, no depth,
Our hearts, no break,
Our bond, no clasp,
Our hope won’t shake.

At least that’s what
We said back then,
Six months ago,
Much more than friends.

Distance and time
Have frayed our bond,
Have taken away of
What we're fond.

But late last night
Before I slept,
Found our picture
And nearly wept.

I forgot how
Love felt before,
The contentment
Of never more.

Stared for an hour
At the girl, lost,
And realized how
I paid the cost.

I’ve loved no one,
No one but you,
Whatever I’d try
Wouldn’t go through.

I’ll never see
The face of yours,
Ever again,
Forever more.

You’re gone from me,
I love you now,
In a way I
Can’t show you how.
