ON GRIEF

ON GRIEF

Breathless in pain, a shock to her being
bitterness and anger, an all consuming feeling
Why had death taken her, why? why? why?
she felt so alone, all she did, was cry

Memories for now, held no soothing balm
she needed to be held, her emotions to calm
People kept telling her in time you will heal 
her thoughts.., please don`t tell me how i`ll feel

Though, as time wore on the sorrow it did become less
her grief eased, the weeping, she was able to suppress
she would still have days where she`d love and miss
her smile, being wrapped in her arms her tender kiss

Grief has no time scale no boundaries it just appears 
you mourn for your lost loved one, until the fog clears
And this is where those memories, come in to play
they ease those questions, of why they could not stay

Deborah, I felt this to my core.  I lost my sister almost two years ago.  Cancer took her and she was so young and beautiful with an amazing soul.  I almost have to block those ending days to make it in this world.  The anger and frustration fueled some blasting conversations with God.  Sorry, this isn't about me but your writing is so powerful...so full of the reality of loss and grief that I wanted to let you know you touched my heart...xo

Love to you for healing in all ways...xo

Hi  Tracey So sorry to hear about your sister( Hugs)
This one is about the loss of my mother the way i felt initially 
the days and months after she passed.
The grief is all consuming it takes over your whole being i think
I wanted to write about the grief to share how i felt 
with the ending lines more on a positive note that it does 
get better even though you will always love and miss your loved one 
Thank you for your kind words 
Best wishes to you Debs xo

My Dear Debs,

The saddest grief in some hearts, will never go away

For they are broken into pieces, with pain that's there to stay

Sometimes a treasured memory, will bring some too short lived relief

But with the return of their reality, again appears their grief

Hugs, Peace and Love,

Larry xxx

Such a sad piece Debs but one that people can relate to- we all have suffered loss and  you describe it beautifully. Lovely imagery created. 

Peace and love xxx

that is felt can ease
