21. Wake Up, Beautiful
Wake up, beautiful.
Wake up from this tragedy.
Breathe,
Return to reality.
Wake up, beautiful.
Wake up from this tragedy.
Breathe,

A tsunami of fire
A wall with no gate
Prayers unanswered
Utterly ignored

Famous Poem
Come to me in the silence of the night;
Come in the speaking silence of a dream;
Come with soft rounded cheeks and eyes as bright
As sunlight on a stream;
I hear your voice in the dead, dark night.
I look around, but no one's in sight.
Through the storms, the rain, the wind I fight,
But all you are is my whisper to find.
Famous Poem
I am not resigned to the shutting away of loving hearts in the hard ground.
So it is, and so it will be, for so it has been, time out of mind:
Into the darkness they go, the wise and the lovely. Crowned
With lilies and with laurel they go; but I am not resigned.
This poem reads the mind of a person affected by grief. "But right now/You can't" has the logic. It depicts the hope that there will be a time with "can."
Real Pain:
empty inside,
hard to breath tears run down my face,
I can't breath,
It's hard for me to accept that you're gone
I'm trying not to think about it all wrong
I know that you're gone to a better place
But sometimes I just want to see your face
I love your poem it reminds me of my little brother that passed away last June
I’ve searched for solace,
yet grief clings,
a shadow I can’t shake.
Loneliness tightens around my heart,
Oh how I feel for you in your grief. I lost my husband a year and a half ago and the grief seems to get worse and worse. We had been together for over sixty years. Sending you my very best...
Famous Poem
The day is ending,
The night is descending;
The marsh is frozen,
The river dead.
