All While Five Tears Silently Fall
April 2, 2019
Five seems to be a number that hurts
All while five tears silently fall
Five deaths in five months
4 family members and one close family friend
Five cases of panic attacks
Five constrictions in my chest
Five nights full of tears
Five days that shall never be forgotten
Five families forever changed
Over 50 hearts broken
Five losses never ending
Five hearts shall never beat again
Five souls darken to black
Five worlds crumbling down
All while five tears Silently fall
Five spirits finally free
Five lives who no longer worry
Five souls to watch over me
Five hearts no longer to be crushed
Five people no longer to protect
Five seem to finally be free
All while five tears silently fall

I'm so sorry for your loss. This poem really describes losing someone in a way regular words can't.
On October 30th 2018 my grandpa died. Every month since then four family members and one really close family friend died. One passed every month and my uncle is one of them he died March 13 2019. On March 29th my teacher said enjoy your vacation to missouri that caught me off guard so when I explained that I'm going to Missouri for my uncles memorial I lost it. I haven't cried for any of the five people who passed until that day it all hit me at once. So I tried to channel it into something so I wrote this poem
My name is Emily and this is my poems story
