My grief is like a wave washing over me It invades my mind and my soul It sometimes catches me off guard And burns in my heart a small hole This burden of grief always follows me It's so heavy like a ball and chain I sometimes wish for a heavy downpour To wash the pain and sadness away In the still of the night I search for you So vividly you appear in my dreams As my eyes open in the darkness And things just aren't what they seem So many kind souls are around me Yet so alone I sometimes feel Such safety I feel within my dreams I wish that some of them were for real Suetang |

![]() ![]() ![]() (big hugggsssssss) Oh Sue, I believe we all have these feelings every now and then, I too have felt I've dragged a ball and chain by my ankle and stumbled on self-pity too, but I believe as long as we learn to love ourselves and hold our dreams true, they will come true and we will find true happiness and love from the world always! (kiss on cheek) We all love you so much, sweet friend, this is very well-expressed, God Bless You! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Sue, thank you for sharing! ![]() May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton |

Suetang, I sure do feel compassion for you. I also feel much grief these days. It is a very difficult thing to get through, writing does help a lot and this is a great poem. floria Floria |
