Final Farewells

Torrents of tears flow At the demise of a beloved friend Striking into our hearts a low blow As against sorrow ourselves we can’t defend Morale fallen Strength and breadth lost Crestfallen Emotional cost Too high to bear As uncertainties our future strikes Amid wear and tear At high speed likes To wear us down Where it hurts us the most In our crown though we attempt to avoid a frown We can’t fail to post On the sorrow we feel In the inner sanctum of our being Wondering why fate and destiny steal The pleasure our departed bestow to the living Whom they leave grieving Lost without a clue As to how receiving Pain stacks in a blue Tears hearts to pieces In heaps of emotion In pain creases Metamorphosing affection Into uncertainty Streaming in stacks Whose quality and quantity Arriving in packs Can’t hide The pain we struggle To chide In the gaggle Sorrow rains As we say farewell In tandem with pains To wish the living fast recovery and soon to get well.
