Grief Poem

I wrote this poem when my grandma passed way. I never really got to tell her goodbye, so I hope you like this poem it means a lot to me. RIP grandma I miss you!

My Sorrow

© Karina Herrera
Life is dead without you.
Feel an empty hole inside.
Can’t be me with you not near.
With a frown I cry.

Tears run down my face.
Needles go through my heart.
Felt a pain rushing in the day you went away.

Want to run away, and hide.
Leave this all behind.
Know that words won’t bring you back.
Still I have to try.

Can’t breath
Can’t see
Can’t live my life
Can’t bare the feeling I have inside.

Want to yell, and let it all out.
Instead I keep it all inside.
Hoping I won’t start to cry when I see you in my mind.
Felt a numbness coming in when I heard that you were gone.

Can’t stop the constant think of you
One day we’ll meet again.
We’ll leave the world behind.
Until we meet another time my life is nothing, but in sorrow.

  • Wow, this is amazing. You should always write poems..if you cant yell and feel like you have to keep it inside. I know how it feels to loose someone like that. I lost my brother, around a year ago now. And I cant bear the thought that he has gone. It makes my heart shrink a little more whenever I talk about how he passed away. Or picture him in my mind. Stay strong for your grandma. You will be reunited with her in heaven again one day. I promise. Take care.x
