Widows woe

Lay beneath the stars
Thinking about you
Knocking things to the floor
Thinking about you
No stomach for food
Thinking about you
Startled when the telephone rings
Can't fly away and spread my wings
Always waiting to hear your voice
Replayed answer message
By choice

stolen from me with violent intent

Brushing past a scarf you lent
Smell your scent
Taken away from me
No sweet lament

I'm sure this a relatable piece for many. nice word choices, the anxiety is being displayed perfectly, very effective over all in my opinion.

Well done, especially since you absorbed this from listening to others speak of it.
