LOSS OF A PARENT/LOVED ONE

When you have a loss like no other,
By this I mean your dad or mother.
Your support network opens, their arms to you,
And sends you all their love and condolences too.

This is a hard hit to take,
So, in life you then try to make.
A new turn in your journey to come,
And spend more time with those you love, that won’t/don’t take you for a run.

You may even, withdraw for a while,
And no longer, find a reason to smile.
Your heart, is left feeling, continuously empty,
You block out, those emotions, even though, you have/feel plenty.

You don’t want to see or do anything,
And your heart will, for a long time, continue to sting.
You try to keep your mind distracted,
And try to stop your emotions, that are, being sensitively reacted.

Dark Dream
Am I reminding you that I exist?
Why do I take on that task?
I should be embedded
In your brain
In your veins
Like you are in mine

10 months and I still cry
10 months and one would think I have moved on
10 months and still not close to enough

I lie in bed
Ready to scream
My eyes filled with tears

And I ask myself why
Why Iβ€˜m not good enough
Why she is
Why I still cry
And why you not

And I wonder how I ended up here

Grace
Her
When Innocence has a baby,
born in Spring,
they name her
"Loveliness"
"Pure"
"Precious"
"Her"

Never trust words,
Because some people have sugar on their lips and venom in their hearts......!
