Nicole Newallo Poem
Grieving is inevitable,
It rends your heart
It washes away your hurt
It fills you with sorrow
For all those missed opportunities
To tell someone you love them,
To hold the hand of a loved one,
To share a drink with a friend
To let them know you will be there
Until the very end.
Losing is part of life,
It fills you with determination
It lets you know where you went wrong
It fills you with new purpose
To in future make it right.
To take that road less travelled
To follow the scarier path
To back the man of inginuity
To try something different and new
Until succusses abunantly brew.
Sympathy though is appreciated
Sometimes comes too late
Why not cherrish those you have now
Why not give that little bit more now
Before the dark cloud of loss arrives.
Taking away the one you loved
Severing ties you thought were solid
Breaking hearts once encased in rock
Stunting the will of the intelligent
Throwing us all out of our element.
And just when we think all is lost
The soothing breeze of spring
Enters our lives
Renewing our faith, and our love
And healing, our once broken hearts
Giving us time to cherrish
Even the rising sun,
The pitter patter of feet,
The chitter chatter of loved ones,
And cleaving to our breasts the battles we have won.
The soothing breeze comfort
That blows daily in my life
Is a soothing balm to my pain
Is a calming essence in the face of strife
Helps me out weigh my loss with my gain.
Lift your face one day,
And let it blow through you,
Let it fill your lungs,
And whisper through your hair,
For its the creator's way of saying
"I care!"

Nicole Newallo Poem
Because it wasn't physical,
No hands were laid,
No foul words spewed,
I brushed it asaide and pondered
Where it fell apart and how to mend.
The rift that existed between us
Was like an open sore,
Every time I thought I was over,
You come back to settle the score.
Because it wasn't visible,
No blackened eyes,
No bloody lips,
I overlooked the pain and thought,
Where did I go wrong.
The chasm that filled our relationship
Was like a festered wound,
Everytime I treated the poison,
You fed the fire with emotional fuel.
Because you said you loved me,
I thought this was just a phase
But I realize that like parasite
You took from me all the love I had to give
And in return you walked away.
I look at the state of affairs
I look at my bleeding heart
I feel the life growing within
And realize you left when there was nothing left to use.

Nicole Newallo Poem
When sun rises each morning I think of what the day will bring
Inside these walls that contain my life there is an emptiness
For all the joy has left and here I stand waiting
For the day to bring me purpose for the wind to bring me joy
The second hand on the clock counts off yet another hour
Spent within this existence that is bereft without you
For nothing seems to awaken my curiosity
For no one could animate me like you
The blue skies cloud over and I stand in the mist and rain
Letting the drops wash over my face to hide my ever present tears
For you left and took all my laughter
For you left and in the bags that you packed your things
You took not just pieces but my whole heart.
