Living In Un-Grief

Living with a sense of loss,
yet, not knowing why,
unable to find the tears to cry,
The missing pieces just don't add up,
A bereft person keeps staring into
tea cups for answers,
The un-grief gnaws 
without any pause,
Then, the disbeliever blames
his/her imagination,
for having created a world of delusion......

That feeling of saddness is real to this person and one can't discount that feeling..There is a reason be it a need for change in their life, a need to grow and mature, some hurt that hasn't been resolved, or chemical imbalance in the brain..I see that you read iridescent teardrop..The person that gives those teardrops has no idea how their words hurt..Sara
