Brenda what a truly wonderful yet sad piece of writing which I guess is rather relatable.

1/ This makes you wonder if this person you're missing so is a lost love or someone who has unfortunately passed over as I can feel the emotion and yearning right from the start.

2/ The emotion continues and now it's quite clear this is about someone who has sadly passed over and the yearning is definitely clear here and though it's saddening i like the subtle rhyming.

3/ If only it was allowed. This is hard hitting !!

4/ The emotion and heartache again is clear especially with "distraught" "destroyed" and "alone" and though this is sad the imagery is breathtaking?!!

Much love,
Em

This year I experienced my first major loss and this put into words what I could not. Thank you for sharing this.
