After a Month

user

I wrote this exactly one month after my mom's passing... Let me know what you think!!!!!


After a month


I am tired of smiling

Tired of crying

At times tired of living

Yet not prepared for dying


I am tired of acting cheerful

And oh so very bright

Acting like sunshine

but feeling like night


I want to have a fit

 To cry scream and shout

Will they think I’m crazy

I’m sure there’s no doubt


I want to throw myself

down on the floor

I wonder to myself,

Oh God how much more


Cant things go back to how they were once before

Is there any way to shut the now open door


This draft is too cold

It bites at my heart

I know when it started

But when does it stop

    wow, that poem was amazing! i am so impressed. you are very talented.

    i can feel your pain and suffering. i have lost uncles and aunts and felt so sad, and then indifferent(like no emotion) later; it was weird for me. "Prelude to a Kiss" by Alicia Keys is a good one to listen to.
