21. Grieving For A Loved One
I shed a tear, I feel quite numb
another loss, thoughts of a dearly beloved one.
They say time heals, give it a while,

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,
