Grief

Grief is like floating But more so in the water It's like yearning for cold But it keeps getting hotter Grief is like wanting to stand But always falling It's like waiting by the phone But no one is calling Grief is like being exhausted But you're wide awake It's a never ending bend When all of you is wanting to break Grief is like an emptiness Where it once was whole It's like needing an answer To a question that nobody knows Grief is like silence When you have so much to say And once it arrives It never goes away
