Bereavement

Bereavement is a pain,
 Worse than being lashed or chained
 It crushes and destroys you mind
 No one for it is trained,

By it every path is drained
 And every learner’s book is stained
 Nothing is left, not even a grain
 For you to plant after the rain

You are lucky you are not slain
 Or pushed out into a drain
 There will be nowhere for you to claim
 Even if you fell with a plane

Bereavement is a pain
 That tares your heart and soul apart
 It banes your flash and leave you ash
 No one will dare escape from it,

Running from it only makes it worse
 You’ll even wish you faced it soon
 Having being suppressed and looked for long
 Makes it wild like bruised Elephant

It’s a matter of time before it explode
 And blow up on your face
 And then you’ll truly understand
 That this world is not for you to gain
 It for you to get a strain,
 Until you join the zombie- match.

Bereavement is a disaster
 Worse than earthquakes and flutes
 It shakes your world and flushes your trust
 No one will rescue you from it

Its thunder rows like a hungry lion,
 The storm it makes is excruciating
 The time it’s over
 You’ll witness the damage, your eyes, your body,
 Your soul, will tell it all 

Bereavement is a torture
 Worse than the rack and electric shocks
 No one will persevere the pain
