Grief's String

A deep, dark night,

A heavy grief so sharp, so bright,

The memory like a dagger’s string,

A Constant ache that never leaves. 


A loved one’s face,

A smile that once had filled a space,

A heart that once beat, now silent,

A life that once was, now absent.


The pain’s immense, 

A weight that never seems to lessen,

A longing that’s so hard to repress.

A loss that’s so hard to repress, 

A loss that’s hard to digest.


The tears might come, 

The anguish felt, each moment,

But the memory, it still remains,

And the grief, it never leaves.
