Mary Gay Kearns
I tried but the deafeating sound of death captured me
Tore away the shreds of dignity laying peacefully
And I screamed to the damp grasses to let me free
But they withered away in cunningness for sanctuary.

So next day I got up and washed my hands and face
Found a pretty, party dress with contemporary lace
Bought a raspberry cake filled with artificial cream
And danced with dear Batty, Foggy and a spoon.

Life breaks hearts and fills this world with pain
It was in the beginning and still is just the same
But Pooh and Piglet, walk down a country lane
And Hundred Acre Wood is a lovely place to play.

Love to all Mary ***

I never imagine living without you, somehow the thought never crossed my mind. But the tree in the forest that falls when no one is there does make a sound, it sounds like years of tears that won't seem to dry, you see the tree falls gradually, first the leaves leaving so swiftly it seems as if they were never there. Then the branch eventually the tree itself starts to decay until there's nothing left but the stump. My heart is similar to the tree, first, the blood vessels that kept it pumping were numbed that's when the memories dissipated. I used you hope of your presents and await your arrival, now it's like I don't know you. I never thought I'd lose my bestfriend, how am breathing with no lungs? Dreaming with no sleep, or running with no legs. How am I here without you?...
It's better to have loved and never loss
