Theresa's Grief

Theresa's grief Monday came to death And there is no comfort for Theresa No comfort to ease the pain of his passing Theresa wishes to join her love in the afterlife But for the sake of her children She lingers on Theresa lingers on in darkness and in doubt As night falls in winter that comes without a star There she dwells bound to her grief Under the fading trees Until all the world is changed And the long years of life are utterly spent There is nothing here for Theresa Only grief. Only death.
