Grief daisiesnfld: Grief . Don't ever leave me, he told her And six months later he died For years she swam before she Drowned in all the tears she cried . It hardly seemed worth living to Go on without him anymore To never hear the key turning The lock when he came in the door . Colors no longer existed for her And she really heard no sound If there was not his voice to hear What mattered if no noise was found . She learned to cook for only one If ever she bothered to cook Not often she fixed her face anymore For it was rare in a mirror she looked . Some just failed to understand Or perhaps they didn't recognize The depths of depression that's consuming When grief overrides one's life . The tell tale signs of isolation When one is so abruptly left all alone And the heart is broken beyond repair The love of one's life is gone . For one day when neighbors checked Because newspapers piled up on the lawn Mail overflowed in the mailbox there They found she too was gone. .
