Grief
Grief is an old man
his shoulders bent
his gait unsteady
walking alone
on deserted streets
bearing the load of
every man's grief.
loneliness opens its arms
pain extends its hands
sorrow kisses him
even as the world shuns him
calling him life's hangman.
Have you felt his grief?
He bleeds in poems,
Poems that hug him
opening his wounds
sharing his pain
giving him love
till he dies only to be reborn again.
