Grief Is Overwhelming
Grief hides behind a veil of tears
that burns like acid rain,
in a downpour of anger, hurt, and disbelief.
Consuming every moment and every thought
grief, wants to lash out at the world;
desperate for some relief.
But nothing can numb the hurt,
as grief clings to death, and in so doing
devastates the living.
As love shrinks to memories
reflected within pools of tears,
grief is overwhelming and unforgiving.
