My Heart is still a grieving space
Inspired by a moving life story of someone who lost a loved one recently.
My Heart is still a grieving space
By Michelle Morris

Your passing was expected
The timing understood
But still it's been immensely difficult
To accept this is closure for our Souls
My Heart is still a grieving space
It's no longer a part of me
I'm trying to distance these feelings
Too overwhelming, stealing Peace
And in these lonely moments
Walking around your empty home
I'm reminded of my childhood
Memories of Love and Hope
Now it's just that building
Where you took your very last breath
And even though it was peaceful
I wish I could have delayed old Death
But He is quite persistent
And He always gets his way
Taking our loved ones from us
To Heaven where they'll stay
Our Faith remains in the Angels unseen
In God's Plan and Graceful Mercies
Where we'll meet our loved ones once again
One day when it's our turn
