Grief

 

Desperation

It’s been years now but it still seems like yesterday.
Sometimes I feel his presence. I want to believe
That his soul lives on and that I can contact him
Yet the light in my soul has become weak and dim
So the messages from him I cannot receive.
That I can come to some resolution I pray.

As I feel him right now I know that everyone
Who’s aware of my sorrow is also aware
Of his presence. Is my knowing reality?
Is my sorrow getting the better part of me?
I know better. There’s no use in my going there.
I’ll enter the abyss of darkest emotion.

Everyone has multi-sensory perception.
It’s not only about everything we can see,
Hear, taste, touch, and smell. We perceive in many ways
Besides those. It’s good that my consciousness obeys
What is in essence spirit. In tune I can be
With that world. I am feeling now what has begun.

I don’t want to diminish the power and scope
Of the presence who came into form for a while
To be with me. The soul is a great deal more than
The finite personality. Indeed it can
Guide me out of depression and put back the smile
That I once had. I’m always receptive to hope.
