Dead

What more? sure I have a tear what for? love a double edged sword the loss makes me bleed over and over again and again I cling to yesterday so that tomorrow the torture will never end

Dear... hold on to the memories. Grief is just love with nowhere to go. Someone said that and it's so true. It's our way of keeping the loved one alive. This poem is so raw. Hope you find healing

Arthur, a little of Poe’s, “The Raven”, coming through in this piece. Well done.

A mentally questioning poem that holds my interest. Time seems to work both ways. Well done.

The loss of love or the death of a dear one makes us so sad. It makes the heart bleed. A poignant poem, dear Arthur.

Your "Dead" is a very powerful/sad write. Life is filled with happy/sad times. I hope you are doing OK... Have a blessed day/weekend writing away................

I hear your words Arthur….death makes us cling onto yesterday and the past so we don’t have to feel the pain of loss ….until it eases! It also makes you question life and why. I hope you are ok ….Debx
