Sitting in my room alone
staring at the things I own
Silence screams in my head
as I wish for peace instead.
The walls at night close in on me
making it hard for me to breathe
I sometimes block shit from my head
try to move on like they said.
I think about you every day
This pain I feel won't go away.
I hide my tears so no one knows
but alone at night, I let them flow.
I forget to breathe and gasp for air
sometimes to find it's just not there
My silent tears scream so loud
I'd pray to God if I knew how.
I grieve for you every day
it does not matter what they say
You live always in my mind
Son, I miss you all the time.

You are welcome teardrop!
Beautiful work.
Thank you
Grief is a station we must bear. I feel you. Sums up the heartache of loving without fear, yet expectation can be unkind.
Go easy and allow the process..there is light on the other side. Great poem
thank you for reading me as well understanding my words.
Your son is still with you. Its never good-bye, just till we're together again. 😇
Deeply felt, sorrow can become joy with the memories of your boy.
The pain of losing a child, surely the most harrowing of all. Dear teardrop, every word felt. Grief so very difficult to navigate. You can get lost so easily.
