Poem
To lose someone of whom u care The loss the grief the utter despair Bereavement the feeling of nothingness Can also seem like a cyclone of pain there's nothing else that can compare It's like the bleakness of a Winters night The bitterness of a cold winds bite The punishments of a volcanic eruption The swiftness of tsunami's destruction The thickness of a fogs blindness The loneliness of being at sea, unable to see any land in sight, On a stormy night A strike of lightning straight to ur heart Shattering it into thousands of pieces tearing your very being apart Like the rumble of thunder a warning of lightning drawing nearer The memories are a reminder like a mental trigger Then the grief rises like tidal waves as its attack commences As it crashes down and u lose all your senses Knocking ur socks off and the air out your chest As your legs give way from being emotionally drenched with stress A tropical rainstorm of tears come flooding through ur eyes As u realise that you have to say your final goodbyes Grief an emotion of utter destruction just like an earthquakes shake Causing everything in its wake to crash and break Trembling from top to toe from waves of shock The loss washes over u like an aftershock leaving u feeling just like a pile of rubble You're exhausted emotionally spent, in a mental muddle Yet there's no escape u can't be saved Like a forest fire it keeps raging it's flames blazing and depraved Every nerve every corner of your brain every single tiny little vein Like a burn the pain of the loss pulses Causing physical palpitations in your heart As u recall the memories, remembering & reminiscing Like whirlpools, the thoughts swirl & whirl when you realise that someone's missing, The reality of the situation psychologically tears you apart Grief's path seems and feels as destructive as mother nature's natural disasters Yet after a storm breaks then the calm cools to close & open chapters new & old As the destruction heals, and the wounds seal The memories will live on however grief is like volcanic lava it can lie dormant in the background Sort of like being in the lost and found Until it erupts the grief reappears to restart You strive to find the drive to fight to continue But like a volcanic eruption destroys everything it runs into The grief will consume u Mother nature's anger causes natural disasters to tear the earth apart, Grief does the same, leaving emotional scars and a lasting hole in an already breaking heart.
