Grief

 

Verse 1

Shock and denial

Hit you first

It cant be happening

I didn’t deserve
The tears flow

As I brace for hurt

 

Verse 2

Pain wracks my body

Shame drills my mind

I could have done more

Spent more time

Must express my grief

Mustn’t try to hide

 

Verse 3

Anger now boils

Replacing the pain

Lashing out to all

Dishing out the blame

Screaming out why

Bargaining in vain

 

Verse 4

I sit staring at walls

Loneliness and affliction

Mind spirals down

Deep in depression

My mind is swamped

With waves of reflection

 

Verse 5

Grey clouds of depression

Thin in my head

The chaos of life

Replaced by a thread

A thread of light

To remove the dread

 

Verse 6

Acceptance and hope

Fills my heart

Support by friends

Ensures new starts

A new journey beckons

A new winding path
