My heart still beats for you
A poem about love after a spouse dies
There is no way to comprehend
That your life has come to and end
I’m overcome with varied emotion
Like billows of waves tossing on the
ocean
I miss the smile that was on your face
Still I remember your warm embrace
With every pulsating beat of our hearts
We grew together and not apart
Adversity forged a bond unbreakable
Though tested and tried we remained
unshakable
Our love stood the test of time
I was yours and you were mine
Now I’m here and you are gone
Im lonely and so all alone
You were my one and only lover
For me there will never be another
Death came and tore us apart
But does not stop the love in my heart
It’s real factual and true for you
Every beat is only and always for you

Llion the Brave Version 2
Her screams diminished as Llion was dragged away from the cell. The stench in the corridor was less but there was still damp, decay, defecation, death. His feet dragged, like a raggedy puppet, the guard either side of him holding him fast. He could feel their individual fingers digging into his scant flesh, leaving their impression on his bones.
