....just how i am feeling today


Entombed


Emotions overwhelm me
As I sit and spill my tears
Crying for the lost one
Revisiting all my fears

Swept along this river
Of questions asking why
The heart refuses comfort
Eternity slips on by

The pain of loss surrounds me
I cling to nothing more
Then when my spirit lays down
And rests on distant shore

This heart is waxing weary
These wings refuse to rise
Huddled in depression
This wish I am denied

I yearn to find the comfort
I search to find the cure
Apply the mental bandage
Quell this mind filled war

But all seems very vacant
I walk this path alone
Entombed within a darkness
This grief is all my own

I understand! Good word picture of the awful debilitating, destroying disease of depression. Kathy

Beautiful and so full of sorrow,the thought of carrying the mantle of grief alone is to heavy a burden for anyone.
