Poetry: Lost you By D.Ebube

I knelt down at the alter
And I prayed for you 
With tears running down my cheeks 
With pain knocking on my chest
I whispered words of hope
Into the universe 
Hoping that this light could save him
Hoping that this light could save us
But we were too broken to be saved
And my prayers which I cried out
With so much heaviness and pain
Could not get past the walls we had built
And when his heart went Cold
My heart broke for you 
Because I simply knew
Somewhere in the middle of my prayer
I had already lost you. 

-D.Ebube

She always wins my heart
