What Else?

Burdened, stained,
Sunken in sheets,
Lay woeful, hopeful,
Erratic heart beats.
Β
Star gaze sporadic,
Across open sky,
Dreams I seek,
No matter how high.
Β
Drowning in tomorrow,
I ponder the past,
Enlaced with sorrow,
Is it meant to last?
Β
We age, bestowed,
Riddled with pain,
We suffer the squall,
Is there light after rain?
Β
Tears brimming,
Loved ones I miss,
Is death the beginning?
Do we pass over in bliss?
Β
Family I miss dearly,
They helped shape the way,
I think of them daily,
I miss them every day.
Β
Heavily laden,
I collapse under stress,
I weep and wonder,
My life is a mess.
Β
Will my sins be obscured?
Will I make it in life?
For all I have endured,
I love my life.
Β
My children, my all,
My wife by my side,
To lose them, Iβll fall,
What a hell of a ride.

Brilliant write Simon. I'm almost jealous of the stanzaΒ
I wish I'd thought of it first. "Dreams I seek, no matter how high"
Great words and very relatable.
