A poem for my dad.
Grief
Isn't grief meant to wane?
And passage of time should ease the pain,
So great loss pales, to sentimental chat,
Romantized recollections, far removed from fact.
And passage of time should ease the pain,
So great loss pales, to sentimental chat,
Romantized recollections, far removed from fact.
Should I stick to the rules, and think of you less?
Abandon all sorrow, would that be best?
Allow daily trivia to tap all my tears,
Till all memory of you, slips away with the years.
Abandon all sorrow, would that be best?
Allow daily trivia to tap all my tears,
Till all memory of you, slips away with the years.
Or may I travel my own road of mourning?
And welcome you warmly, with each new day's dawning.
Gladly speak your name, and cry if I wish,
For, weren't you a man, who deserved to be missed?
And welcome you warmly, with each new day's dawning.
Gladly speak your name, and cry if I wish,
For, weren't you a man, who deserved to be missed?
