Grief & Despair

In the shadows of sorrow, where grief resides,

A haunting melody, despair confides.

Through the veil of tears, the heartache seeps,

A relentless storm, where anguish creeps.

Oh, grief, a weight upon the weary soul,

Like a tempest's wrath, it takes its toll.

Its tendrils wrap around the broken heart,

Tearing apart what once was whole, apart.

In the depths of despair, darkness takes hold,

A relentless tide that leaves one cold.

Whispers of anguish echo in the night,

Draining the colours, blinding all sight.

Oh, despair, a silent thief in the night,

Robbing the spirit of its vibrant light.

With heavy steps, it stifles every breath,

Leaving nothing but a void, a hollow death.

Yet, amidst the chaos, a flicker of hope,

A glimmer that helps the grieving heart cope.

For in the depths of sorrow's darkest hour,

Seeds of resilience sprout, delicate flowers.

From the depths of despair, strength can arise,

As shattered pieces mend, love still complies.

Grief, a reminder of what once was dear,

Guiding us forward, wiping every tear.

So let us embrace the sorrow that's there,

Acknowledge the pain, for it's not unfair.

For in the tapestry of life's design,

Grief and despair, are the threads that intertwine.

They teach us to cherish each fleeting breath,

To hold onto love, even in the face of death.

For in the depths of grief, we learn to mend,

To rise from despair, and find peace in the end.
