Grief's Rhapsody



Profound sadness
is
In the house

Who then
Ushered
In 
This guest
To my
Midst?

What
Utter deception
Was 
My frequent
Bed-fellow

That supposed
A relatively
Protracted
Lifetime
Could 
Be
Devoid
Of
It's
Requisite
Grief
And
It's necessary
Observances

Begone
From mine
Heart
I won't
Submit
To Thine
Cleaving

Nothing to see
Here
Shall we
Just 
"Move on.."

Alas
Though
An art form
Was
Made of 
Evasion

Truth is
There
Will be
No negotiation

A heart must 
Break

All that
Has 
Known
The
Kiss of 
"the Reaper"

Requires
It's due
Homage

Before 
It's release

Cast off
Then
What was
What never was
And was never meant 
To be

Stranger awaits
In 
The wings

Before
I die
Entirely

There 
Remains
Chance
To 
Introduce
Myself
