UNJUSTIFIED MOMENTS

Rain falls. Wind blows. Eyes weep.
Hearts break. Joy leaves. Death comes.

In the unjustified moments of sadness,
We find ourselves, kneeling, gazing
To the sky.

Looking for answers. For clemency.
Today everything is, as yesterday’
Tears I cry

Today and tomorrow. My joy, snatched
In an almost criminal act
Of a gnawing pain.

Mem’ries will remain forever, mine
Always. I see you in dreams and
Pray the rain

Will hide my tears from a world
Who do not, cannot share with me in
This grief, the loss

Has emptied my life, cauterised this
Once vibrant heart that beat for you
Stoically and stopped because

You went away, taken away by
Something beyond my control, my being,
My strength. Pain

That never subsides. Rainbows fill the sky
After rain. A wry smile purges
This sullen face,

Steeped in sadness. Alone, like never
Before. I hear the song
From that place

You now reside, angels on hand,
Sweet child. I wander aimlessly, lost in the
Caverns of heartbreak

Still hoping, still wishing, praying
Somehow, some way, some day
You’ll awake

And this reality pinches me back.

I know you’re gone.

Rain still falls. Wind still blows. Eyes still weep.
Heart  broken, joy’s left, death came.

And I am left with only memories
And your angels song…..
