The Loss of Hope

Since my creative side seems to be on vacation, I decied to reblog an old poem-if you know of any PROMP site still active, please let me know, they really brought out the creativity in me, and I need that right now.

I dream of you-your face,your smile, how I cherished it

how it made my soul feel alive, even in the worst of times

and then I realize you are gone-never NEVER do I have

the slightest hope of seeing you, touching you again.

 

I wonder how many times I can die-drowning in this pain?

 

And I dream of those still here, yet so far away

wonder if I have any more chance of touching them, loving them

than I do those who lie among the flowers on the hill…

 

Hope-sometimes it dies because life has stolen it

and you don’t know why or how to fix it, even though it could be- somehow

and sometimes it dies when hearts stops beating.

There is no breath, no life, what wasis frozen in time,

all that is left is night, darkness, dreams…

 

I wonder, here, alone…

    This is so powerful and honest. I’m glad you were able to write your true feelings – the loss of your beloved son is every reason to feel hopeless. It is a horror that no one can know unless they’ve walked in your shoes.
    You say you’re looking for prompts. I don’t have any ideas, but I do know that you are a wonderful writer when you allow yourself to express feelings, even ones that are about hopelessness. It’s okay to do that. Worrying that you will be judged for “grieving too long” might be getting in your way. There’s no such thing. Grief changes as time moves along. It is a monster that can shadow life. Let it out and keep telling your truth.
