Death Thou Art Cruel! | Solace When Going Through Loss of a Loved One

Nothing prepares you for the loss of a loved one.
It's a very dark place to be, time almost stops, the world almost seize to rotate. 
The void left drains one from within like a black hole.
Leg gives way on solid ground, solid rock starts to feel like shifting sand.
You feel like you are sinking on solid ground like it is possible to drown on top of a mountain.
Sometimes the heart is filled with hurt, sometimes it's broken and filled with void.
We seek and find solace in our faith and the hope that we will meet again to part no more.
To all those going through the agony of losing loved ones, my thoughts are with you and I pray and hope that we all find that solace that our hearts desire.

Here is a poem about DEATH!

DEATH thou art cruel!
You roam around casting your shadow,
Looking for who to consume.

DEATH thou art cruel!
You take one away,
Then break the hearts of many. 

DEATH thou art cruel!
You cut short what could have been,
And leave voids that can’t be filled.

The Chase - Spoken Word Poetry | BBC Upload Poetry

         

                             

My heart is heavier,
I take my time to do everything.

My breaths are deeper,

And I take extra care when I talk

Just because I don’t want to hurt you.

The time goes by,

And it’s like the world is coming to an end.

The sun rises and sets,

The day increases in number,
Yet, it’s like things are not changing.
The world is spinning so fast without a destination,
But I have a determination
That will soon become a manifestation.
I’m reaching out for your heart,
And all I need is your love, trust, kindness and care.
The depth of the ocean can’t be compared to how
Deeply touched I am by your love.

The heights of the mountain won’t stop me from reaching out to you,
The distance to the sun won’t stop me from pursuing your love.

Strangers-to-Lovers

We went from 
strangers-to-lovers,
Breaking all bounds,
Defiling all odds.

We went from 
strangers-to-lovers,
Creating memories,
Making long term plans.

We went from 
lovers-to-strangers,
The boundaries we broke overturned,
The odds now  turned against us.

We went from 
strangers-to-lovers-to-strangers 
in a lifetime.
Created memories fading by the day,
All the made plans now unmade,
Deafening silence is all that remains.
