quashed

Sleepless night of pain,
greater than before,

once from the fear,
of losing you,

but now from
this loss so true.

I saw this coming
for so long,
but knew not
what to do.

I did not know
which way to turn,
to keep from losing you,

but would not turn away,
into the nothingness 
you pointed me to,

though now your will be done,
and mine be quashed.
