Despondent
despondent
these feelings invaded,
conquered the very soul.
shards of sadness line the road
where, loss can lead to madness.
words offered barely pierce stout
walls, erected to protect her, from
good intentioned hoverers,
too many to be mentioned.
she can not hear nor see the love
that family, friends proffer
all her thoughts are frozen still
upon the loss that caught her.
these words won’t mend things
broken now inside this weary breast
yet heart strings spun then woven
can truly make a nest .
