Trauma

The pain I feel, I keep secret.
I will never be able to forget
The suffering I saw in those eyes
As the illness took you from our lives.
To see you wither, then pass away
Haunts me, constantly, to this very day.
...........................................
I know everyone has to die
But in such a manner, I ask why.
I tendered lovingly to your care
Hiding, in your presence, total despair.
I can't believe it happened so long ago
The hurt that's still there, I will never show.

Hello Richard...
This touched my heart as your words usually do...

Take care ! :)
sweet and tender such sad words that touch the heart.
Thanks for leaving such a kind comment.
I agree with Richard that we all have to die someday, but despite that the deep wounds that cause us the death never heal and all those people that were important for us never can forget, they will be there until the last second of life and accompany us in our death.
Death is always ugly to those who remain, and sad for those who in her arms die. A poem very sad but also very real.
Thanks for your appraisal and insight ! :)
Best wishes.
