“Emotions – Bitterness”

 

E motional display

M emories of yesterday

O ld habits hard to die

T o understand me if you try

I t's for you my tears are shed

O pen wounds of endless hurt

N ever say never ... give up!

S hattered heart shall speak


B roken souvenir of love

I nternal bleeding of the soul

T errible heart ache

T otal confusion of emotion

E nding of a era

R emember the sorrow and the share

N o turn back from the deep dark hurt

E ndless waiting but never to stop the hurt

S adness ... over a loved one gone

S ilence of the grave

It's always like breaking into pieces, if we loose someone we love. Hard to recover, almost impossible to go on....
I wish you strength.
Beautiful write and photo.

Tinka,

A great looking family! A truly sad and heart-wrenching poetic write; remember though:'Discouragement and defeat - emphasize that these will not happen to you'!!

Best wishes,

So so sad, Tinka; and sadness is definitely part of living, but bitterness needn't be, if we fight it. Truly hoping better days lie ahead for you.

a very intense emotional acrostic ... getting over the loss of a loved one is never is easy thing to do since we never really do get over it ... peace Tinka, and let the knowledge that life is eternal be a source of hope for you ...

This is so sad but very creative poem.
Never gone, as long as your heart beats and memories keep. Just a change of residence. xoox
Marvelous warm hearted looking family.
Merriest Christmas Many Blessed Years.
You are always in my prayers

Hey Tinka, no bitterness in the holiday season is allowed, tis not the season for it...and your husband looks like Jerry Garcia of the Grateful Dead, although he has been dead since 95'...Ed

A very heart-felt emotional outpouring in this acrostic, Tinka. Take care and be well.

Oh Tinka....my heart cries for you. I am so sorry that you have to carry this pain with you all the time. Maybe, in a small way, this...all of this poetry you write, is Michelle's gift to you for loving her so much. Maybe in a small way, her hand is in your hand when you create these poems. Now I'm really crying my heart out....
