Pain is weaving itself around my numbness
Making it hard to write.
Puzzled I seek understanding
Surrealism has taken control
Anger breathes out the fog I am incased in
The bleak meaning of it all has not been exposed.
I tumble down the steps of sanity
I am crippled by the night
Faint shadows of what it used to be like, haunt me
I want to hear you, yet my ears have been blinded.
I want to see you, yet my eyes can not feel.
I think I have stepped over the edge.
I want to lie down and rest awhile
Yet like the good robot that I am… My body moves on...


Grieving day Sixteen, Where to go from here....

Grieving never gets any easier.
And like robots we all just march on.
I could identify with you fully with this one.

Tomorrow comes for those who fear it.
Today never ends for those who live it.

Faint shadows of you used to be. Maybe fresh beginnings of a better shadow to be?

It can take a lifetime

It can take days to come back years

I dont know how I would handled more

We back away after one, then two then three but

My mother took 6 years
My wife's aunt out of the blue
My neighbour over the road

But one was Ans
Stella was cancer, diabetic and loosing a close friend
Ron was cancer in the brain and everywhere else

Death is not personal in how it hits

We all wear out and try to blame ourselves

Loosing a love is a joy
Because it isn't there
And you can live it for years

There is a difference

Offering hugs, in understanding.
His untimely death made no sense to me, either. Somehow, I think he would want you to keep moving forward though, creating new positive pictures of humanity, continuing to share the legacy of his POV when you can.

Part of you will go on...part never will, but even that part will grow and learn to understand...as Martie said.

When tragedy strikes us, it is so hard to understand
sometimes. Though time may not heal, it does help
us to carry on....somewhat.
Big hugs to you,
Ethel

This poem moved my soul.
Being profound in the most poetic way..

And your other replies confirm,
Love in the most inspring way
Still does exist in humanity...

I have asked the energy entity to send you balance..
