Grief

Shock when I heard the news
Even though you were 85, you left us too soon
I held your hand, I said goodbye
Never did I know it would be the last time

I’m tired and I’m hurting
I tried pills and meditation but nothings working
Everyone says this pain will ease
But nothing is worse than stage 1 of grief

I cried last night but I’m growing numb
Even at 85, you were still too young
I know we live and then we die
But it breaks my heart that I had to say goodbye

I’m cold and I’m hurting
I tried therapy and medication but nothings working
Everyone says “alivе, he’d want you to be”
But my grief makеs me wanna go 6 feet deep

I wrote every song
I cried every tear
I called every friend
But you still aren’t here
I prayed you’d give me a sign
Just to tell me you’re fine
But now I don’t even wanna be
Because grief is taking its toll on me
