grief

relief.


deep breath, trembling


few tears shed. upturned head


but sure not that a man is dead!


of course.




piercing


everywhere screams


love will never feel safe


panic overcomes. she succumbs


wasted




numbness


shock isn’t right.


new in alien lands


world colored in blue, all sense fails.


what’s left?




good days


can ruin things


when guilt of living drowns


out reason. but honor their life


with joy.
