Grief Written

Raindrops The storm is brewing in the sky. Hear the thunder yell its angry cry. The inky dark clouds leave the world in gray, As the world beneath my feet begins to sway. The raindrops streak through the sky, Leaving me to wonder why I can’t cry? You are gone…gone without a trace and without you I have no place. The world selfishly took you from me Swallowing you up like the red sea. Ripping your love from my grasp But deep inside I knew it could not last So I here I stand crying out my tale of woe While the grief in my heart overflows The line of death is one I cannot cross So here I will remain, stricken with your loss I love you I love you I love you…I whisper to the rain Hoping you can hear those words as I whisper them again and again

Just keep your head up darling Don’t care one bit about what they say Just keep on smiling and wipe those tears away I know life hurts…. I know that it’s hard… I can see it in your eyes I can see you’re broken and scarred Just open up your heart and let go of all their lies Forget about all those people and their wordless goodbyes Just keep your head up darling Don’t care one bit about what they say Just keep on smiling, for tomorrow brings a better day

Remember me: When you walk away…leaving me behind Remember me, our fingers, how they were always intertwined. When the wind whispers and the grass sways Remember me, and my final days. When the day grew dark and you held me tight As the world disappeared and started to fade to white Remember the way the words I love you remained unspoken on my lips As my firm grasp on your hand slowly began to slip Remember the way I waited for you, silently letting the tears go Watching them create crystal clear pools on the floor below Remember me but do not grieve me, for it was your choice to leave me. Remember how you came too late… For the night had swallowed me and my heartbreak.
