How Much Grief Can you Hold
Tell me this
When does it stop?
When will I empty all this grief?
How many tears can a human hold?
Where does it go?
A river, a lake, an ocean?
What empty vessel is large enough for the grief I feel?
When does it stop?
When will it have had its way with me?
Is this hole ever going to be filled?
With something
Anything
Other than grief
Or do I just accept that this is here now
forever
that I'll always feel this way about you?
An aching hole
of missing you
a void
forever unfilled
Is that what I am now?
