L.O.S.S

Loss is a disease

It crawls like a disease

Taking everyone I need

people I care about, I blink

they be gone one and one like rolling beads

I don't know how to cope with loss

for it eats my inside out

I am silently sitting on the corner

watching everything wither

like an Autumn curse

I am powerless and weak

Most people don't know how to cope with loss; I believe it encompasses much emotion, in different stages...it seems like all has disappeared... it's difficult to describe, but one really feels it, as you say "it eats my inside out"..... I think we all suffer in different ways when we lose a loved one....there is no one recipe. Well done!

I do understand this poem Lale. I lost both parent the past two years and I am the senior one in the family left. Hard to know. The ones, who helped us. Are not with us and we must become the strong ones. Thank you for sharing the amazing poetry.

Felt this one Lale, lost my mum earlier this year and a brother in law last year. Plenty of mourning in my family. Fortunately I have siblings and we all support each other in our grief. I am sorry for your losses. Grief is all encompassing at times and exhausting. Look after yourself dear Lale.

And the worst part is that there is nothing you can do about it.. I'm sorry for your loss, dear Chris.
