Your shadow returns
In pearled tinges to calm wound’s ache---
Still, I grieve for death
 When final lamp of midnight fades

I Need To Grieve

Need to grieve,
but this makes
everyone else sad.

But I need
to let it out.
And sometimes
instead I get
a little mad.

a startled sun -
scattered elephants on the plane;
their families grieve

Leaving Home

Crying softly in the
back seat, as I
wait for endless greens
woods
farms, cows
to stop.
It’s easier to grieve them
out of sight.

When I cut off a tree limb
Does the tree flinch?
When I trim a flower back
Does she cry?
When I rake autumn leaves
Do they grieve?

He will grieve
if we leave :(

We will not leave
if we believe! :-)

Death

And I cry, 
to shed a tear, 
missing what is near, 
so I cry. 

And so I grieve, 
because I'm scared, 
of how much I cared, 
so I grieve.

My eyes do not deceive me
Why doesn’t she grieve me
My heart does not beat
For any of her deceit
Her plastic life thieves me

In Sadness I Grieve

In sadness I grieve;
Then in Jesus do believe;
God and Son receive.

Where the When Begins

Learning how to become yourself
  the past and future grieve

Learning where the when begins
 —a moments destiny

Christmas Eve 2018

Americans don't know what to think - 
Will Trump's government float or just sink?
On Christmas Eve
Employees grieve
Trump wrote cheques with disappearing ink!

Uncomfortable

You told your man you would call. 
You told your man to stand tall. 
So here I stand with the phone in my hand waiting for a reprieve from the loneliness I grieve.

Wrath

The coroner did not believe.
That that fellow knew how to grieve.
Suspicious suspect.

The man lay lying on the floor.
The coroner deduced once more.
Murder I detect.

what once was

you’re gone now
and i feel relieved 
i feel like my own person again
but yet i grieve you
it’s like you’ve died but
i know you haven’t
things are just different

Premium Member Rip

RIP
to all who had to leave,
as well as to all who left us prematurely.
Rest In Peace?
Perhaps for they maybe,
but not for the living who endlessly grieve like me.

Grieve and Relieve

Grieve and Relieve

We so often will seem to grieve; 
Writing more poems will relieve; 
Did help me out,
Without a doubt,
Reinforcement always receive.

Suffering

It was easier for me  to live when my baby died , to grieve,   
but it is much  worse  for me to bare  when my child  suffers most of her years and  i suffer with  her.

The Murder of the Crows

Birds in broken wings
grieve through mourning eerie skies
Humming death's anthem
