Bereft
A Poem by
John Alexander McFadyen
A sadness clouds us daily as we strive to survive.
Bereft
Sometimes love
is all there is.
When the world rails
and we recoil
being loved can save us.
No chance, no money,
no salvation,
but in the warm arms
of love
we can still exist.

So very true. If we lose ourselves mentally then everything else begins to tumble. Only a matter of time. Hate may win the hour but love shall conquer the day. Always a pleasure reading your work John.

I tried and you are welcome.
and without it, we are still breathing entities, but the pulse is faint.
