A loss because it was something

I had to gain to then lose,

Something I once held but now no more

A void now

Where your existence once resided

Incomplete or different?

I fail to see how this cycle ends

Or is that something you would want me to think?

She’s no longer that person you might

Have come to know

She had to lose some parts

to find something else

She had to water the plants

So they would bloom and then grow

She had to speak words of life

And live in the moment

Lift her hands in surrender before the feet of

The creator

Bathe herself and cleanse away the day

In moments of sorrow she’d why the tears away

Be greatful even though she endured

And still give even when

She was the only who outpoured.
