My loss and grief of losing my father.. |
I'm new to writing so not sure if its any good.. any feedback would be great .. i like writing free verse poetry I still remember the day that changed me, Your smell of old spice, your perfect set hair your favourite pants shirt and tie I had it rough that year, changed schools had no friends and bullied You were there for me to tell me to keep strong, there is life after school Your words in the back of my head made moments of school bullying and heartache easier I made it through high school with you beside me, and your words of wisdom The year we lost you to mental illness will never stop hurting I know you did what you did, cause you could no more I understand the pain of cancer and losing the battle played a part My sadness years later still lives on The loss of a father, a hero, a lifesaver It still haunts me with pain My heart will never be the same So many unanswered questions Why didn't you tell someone Why didn't we see the signs you were suffering underneath the happy face Could we have helped to find a solution than leaving a life of unanswered questions I still often cry to sleep at night wondering When will be the next time i see you Will we ever find the answers I hope time makes it easier to move on The anniversaries are hard significantly on mum she can't see past it, she wont move on She cries herself to sleep in a huddle underneath her sheets on her bed Tears pour furiously and falls asleep in a bundle with your photo beside her Will the pain ever end |
