Poem -

Too Much.

Too Much.

Each tear can only be considered a blessed release.

Each tear tells the story of fate refusing any blame !

Each sharp tear is born from a place craving peace.

Frustration and powerlessness inflict a toll to maim.

..............................................

Strength and hope have ended with bitter confusion.

Tragic circumstance I am unable to hide from view !

This is where reality thrusts a dagger into an illusion.

All now understand what I have been going through !

.............................................

Can the world ever return to what has been known ?

Will a heart recover from pain beyond a nightmare ?

Memories are an unwelcome pressure I do not own !

Each tear marks finale to a chapter forced to share !

Grief and loss are so difficult to process...

This is where reality thrusts a dagger into an illusion

This line really sums it up well

Great poem..I hope you're okay

:) I am feeling fine, thanks for inquiring !

So pleased you liked this one as it took some time to put together. Life is about learning to live with loss amongst other things. There is a period when you are coming to terms with a bereavement and trying to accept the inevitability of losing loved ones. Faith and belief helps you through darker days but missing someone dear to you is a certainty. I just wanted to express how I have felt in the past when confronting this part of lifes journey !

Thank you so much for commenting on my poetry. Your support means such a lot.

Best wishes. xox

The first line, a blessed realease, rather a chemical realease, when pain and love come together to form actual chemicals, you can touch them, feel them, it's amazing, the body's way of ridding emotions, lovely poem Richard.  Keep crying.

Each tear tells a story: a tear of Hope,  a tear of pain, and tear of joy. ## Everytime we survive a trial in life,  we leave behind a trail of tears!!! 

Great ink sir Richard!!
