Poetry: Describe a Desperate Love
Describe a moment in which love felt uncertain, suffocating and so dire that it brought you or the character to a panic.

Searched

I did not know where they were

I searched

and searched

and searched

I did not find them.

Then I did,

and it drove me to the cusp of death.

Then I tried to find a way to save them,

and it was all in vain.

Later people said that I went insane.

That I lost it.

That I could have died a noble death,

instead of in a hospital

screaming my throat sore.
