Poetry: Grief

by Emanon Laernu

Created on: November 20, 2010

A Hole


Grief it fills me it's in the marrow of my bones

It's eaten away a part of me and now...

I fear a repair is needed

I've got tapes of all kinds, staples and glue

For there is a hole you see...

A large hole

And I've needles and thread, thumbtacks and

glue

But they are all so useless

The only thing that can repair this hole...

Is You


All the warmth

All the love

Cannot make me whole again...

For this hole

Is irrepairable

Without You...


And no matter-no amount of tapes or glue, thread or needles

Can mend and fix this hole within me...

Can repair the hole you left...


And I know you are lost to me

But I will not make another hole...

I will not try to follow you

For I know it's not my time...


I will not make another hole in someone's heart...

I will live on with mine
