When life says sorrow

She's at the foot hills where it's dingy weather and that matches her fallen disposition on this cold morning. On her mind of which saddens her heart are the many loves she's lost through life in general. Each drop of dew lands on her skin right in the spot of which was someone's favorite at one point and time. As her body knows naturally how to stay alive her heart and soul are having trouble with the desire at this moment to carry on. Why when she finds someone that makes her feel life and living and happy it runs it's course and she awakes one morning to an empty bed. Why When she lifts herself up to contribute to a positive universe it deals her a losing hand. She mourns however she refuses to live in a puddle of permanent sorry for that's not her way. Lingering on though is an adjustment that seems to purposefully fill the void. Time will callus a little bit more of her heart as before and she just hopes that there will be enough left to love again.
