Love Poem: Grief

Grief

Grief, a word I’ve  never explored .
Now  seeing the dark side of the moon,
I don’t  wonder about tomorrow.
Today can’t end to soon.

Tears and tears unbounded,
I know they go unheaded.
But flow  and flow and flow
As if on thirsty ground  their needed.

My heart is open to see
But no-one stops to look.
I  long to put this away,
Like a closing chapter in a book.


They say that love is noble…
That for love you should wish the best.
But my soul crys out  for ME,
I see that I cannot meet this test.
