LOSS
Shock ... numbness ... shocking
Empty sickness
Battle of the tears ... dry tears
and choking ... choking pain
Cold, mental, chill.
An indefinite dream.
Dazed, grief, solitude.
Timeless, torrid, hollow.
A mental grimace
A bare existance
Quaking ... stomach crater
Conscious blockage ... and safe
Weary, tired, tortured
Sick ... sickly groping
for a hold on life
Emptiness ... thin air
Gone ... something
Never, returned, recaptured
Never ... again. |
