We grieve when we have lost a love or friend
Then grieve because the grieving is now less
We feel the death more when the grieving ends
The rawness of the grief,love seems to lend
As we weep and moan, we love caress
We grieve when we have lost our sweetest friends
My body tense, my heart shrinks to defend
The once good home now is a cruel mess
We feel the death more when first grieving ends
My shoulders hunch, my body can’t pretend
But wishes still to weep, his love I miss
We grieve when we have lost a long known friend
The second grief, illusions’ haunting pends
Can I taste his lips when we can”t kiss
We feel the death more when first grieving ends
Oh, that death were something I could kick
Instead of bringing sorrow to me sick
We grieve when we have lost a spouse or friend
Then hate the empty feeling when grief ends.
How my heart sings
