The power of grief
Georgia Denton Jul 2020
The power of grief is crazy,
The price we pay for love.
You were here with me once,
And now you’re somewhere above.
How can this have happened,
It’s like a ******* hole.
Like someone has come and taken,
All the happiness from my soul.
I suppose at the time you were taken,
I didn’t actually realise.
The impact this would have on me,
More than just tears in my eyes.
So many things you’ve missed,
Where I wish you were by my side.
Everything feels so lonely now,
All because you’ve died.
I hope that you are watching,
And I hope that you are proud.
But now I am left carrying round,
This huge heavy black cloud.
The cloud is called grief,
The price I’ve paid for love.
Now I will try my best for you,
Until I join you up above.
So wait for me in heaven,
Or wherever you are.
But now I will have to continue,
Loving you from afar.

Painful events like a knife in your heart
Painful life, not a clue where to start
Memories fading like the moon in the sky
Why do our loved ones have to die
A hollow shell without a soul
Never again will I feel whole
Questions to ask but no one to answer
Flashbacks arriving in the mind like cancer
Loved ones around you giving you strength
They say life’s short but it feels such a length
Wanting to help but feeling so helpless
Fighting for life to achieve mental wellness
A life filled with pain but still I’m so grateful
All in the name of my guardian angel
