I sit down on the muddy ground,
staring down at his gravestone,
hearing birds chirping in the distance,
I could feel my hands shake uncontrollably,
as tears were rolling down my pale cheeks.
"I miss you.."
I say,
my voice sounding tired.
I paused for a small moment,
thinking to myself,
Why is missing someone so...
Miserable?..
It shouldn't be this upsetting..
Should it?
My thoughts started to overwhelm me,
I cuddled up to myself,
as I quietly sobbed.
"I miss you so much..."
I mumble to myself,
my throat feels like it's burning,
I can hardly breathe.
someone,
please,
save me..
...
Is this what Grief feels like?..

Yes it really does feel like all you have written, grief feels like this, it can also physically hurt the heart, mine had physical pain. You have managed to express your own grief incredibly well, also in imagery. There are no rules to when we may feel.less pain and sadness, but that's because we are all individual humans. I can promise you that the pain does eventually fade, and for me it was after the 3rd year. ❤️
This is very well expressed the feeling and pain of grief, it is a long process but it will get better, very nicely written
No label does justice to a feeling, no word can adequately describe an emotion and this poem portrays grief in a vivid manner through images not simple words. Nicely done
