sadness (Remove filter)
She left home
She left home like a stranger in the night
No goodbye for the parents behind her
Shattered, broken and distraught
This isn't what they thought
Estranged and departed
Seperated and disheartened
Where do you belong?
Now you know there's something wrong
Meanwhile the parents stay
Like sharks circling at your bay
Only time will tell
In heaven or hell

The Loss
Every loss is felt
Just as a ripple is spelt in water
Ever decreasing, calming asunder
A clock ticks in a house even emptier than before
The dark lingers in a hall still and sure
The cat rules now
Wondering why and how
Water weeps from a pungent wound
Never to be cleaned but to neglect and fester
Such a thought no beautiful sight could hinder
Leaving the los...

Ode to Percy…(a cats best friend)
Watching the leaves fall
Standing so tall
Waiting at the window
I still wonder
It wasn't long ago
I can still see us
Haunting shadows in the dusk
Running, fighting, climbing
Making footprints in the snow
Your furry figure lingers at the edges of my mind
Gone but not forgotten
Your smile runs to hide
Sunny days fade away
As your ghost lies still
