I'm working on a new poem...

Not much private time for writing.. cannot write one thing with activity going on. Need quiet. *

This is unfinished.... don't know when I'll finish it.. can't find the right words..

She smiles a smile
a surface smile?
not really from the heart
but look into the smilers eyes
try seeing for a start
the emptiness
and wailing grief
that's really hiding there
the pain of loss
a heavy cross
that's hers alone to bear.
the feelings sad
a wan facade
she doesn't want to share.

Time they say..
Oh what a farce
all time forevermore
cannot undo
the thoughts of you
as if they sliced and tore
her heart to bits
and there it sits
all crumpled on the floor

Oh what to do
sad there is naught
and even if there was
she wouldn't want to stop
the pain... she couldn't stop
the pain insane

Sometimes....

* I've decided to name this poem Unfinished Mourning and leave it just like it is.....
