To Those That Say

To those that say
You will see her again

To those that say
This will get better

To those that say
She’s in a better place

To those that say
She is with God

To those that say
Eternity is waiting

To those that say
All of those things
I reply, “You are probably right.”

And then I resume
Bleeding the rest of her body
Out from mine.

  1. Your poetry is beautiful and says exactly what I want to say at times. There is no comfort when they say “You will see them again” like its a scarped knee we are to get one quickly and move on with life. The pain is deep, and you capture it in your words perfectly.

    1. I’m so sorry you know this pain, too 😦 It’s beyond words for the most part but sometimes I think I can grab a little tiny bit of it.
