Forgotten North --My Mother Lives No More--

(written in despair following the death of my mother) My Grief is fog The sea is white The winds are dead And I am lost. I turn to land. My feet are bare. I have no map My road is gone. Biting Rocks Burning Ice I am blind And I am lost. The compass twirls And East is West. The sky is black. & I am lost. My North is gone Forever gone. And I am lost Forever Lost.
