This Feeling Called Grief

This heartache this sadness
this feeling of pain
to think I'll never hear your voice
or see your face again

The loneliness without you
is beyond belief
I can't come to terms with
this feeling called grief 

It's so hard to describe just how I feel
without you beside me
time has only stood still

I sit for hours in your favourite chair
talk to your photo
wishing you were there

I touch your clothes & start to weep
I hug your pillow
& try to sleep

Life must go on
I suppose it's true
but a day doesn't pass
without thinking of you

To treasure your memory 
I must carry on
but nothing else matters
now that you've gone.

Memories of Summer

Awaken at dawn to a chorus of birds
Warm sunlight on my pillow
Cumulus clouds in a cerulean sky
Fields of golden wheat below

The buzzing of a honey bee
As it passes by unseen
The distant sound of a cricket game
Being played on the village green

A graceful flight of swallows
Soaring high above the trees
The fragrant scent of lavender
Carried by a summer breeze

A picnic with my loved one
Eating strawberries in the sun
The peaceful sound of a blackbird singing
When the day is done

All these fond memories of summer
Seem to help me in a way
When the weather’s cold outside
On a frosty winter’s day.

Passers-By

As I gaze out from my window
I feel the need to cry
Don’t they know that I’ve just lost you
Those people passing by

How can they treat this day as normal
When I’m feeling such despair
If I told them all about you
Do you think they’d really care

If I begged for them to listen
Would they Really comprehend
That you were not just my loved one
But quite simply my best friend.
