Departure
The sadness filling up the vacuum
in the emptiness of your departed friends
is like an endless melancholy abyss
too profound and overwhelming for expression,
going deeper in your heart and soul
than any physical expression can admit or show,
the feelings draining you of energy and will
so far that even oceans of your tears
will never water such a desert
and not even make a dwindling mudpool
for relief to all your pains, regrets and losses.
But that hope remains,
that your friends are still there
and waiting for you in the future
for that golden moment to return
of your most loving association.
