The Lonely Cries Of A Widow
I cry tonight…
Does anyone hear?
Does anyone know?
Does anyone care?
My heart is broken…
Shall I tell you?
Do you feel it?
Can we mend it?
The world I knew is gone…
Does it matter?
Can I change that?
Will you fix it?
No hope for love now…
Will I ever find it?
Can you help me?
Do you know how?
My lonely cries become silent…
Can you hear them now?
Are they too lonely?
have I mourned too long?
Oh….the lonely cries of a widow!

Poetry: Grief
by Sid de Knees
Hey Dad, I love you.
Oh father promise me, you'll live,
if it should be that I die first,
don't ever starve yourself of life,
or
It is four years now since that awful call
And still I cannot stand up proud and tall
My mind crawling in darkness round
where
Trapped in memories of our yesteryears,
that are locked in archives in my mind,
I can’t advance while stalled in the
Grief
In the grip of grief, I suffer the pain I feel
It is so unreal, the hurt, a distasteful meal
That makes me weep,
Loneliness
When the Dark
Brings Tears
............
I gazed out toward
the cold graveyard
and wondered if
she was peaceful
