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
