It took my heart a long while
to stop from feeling as empty as it did
lots of stresss and worry that
I did not need to put myself through
It was seemingly arduous tourture
I have now recently just woken up
to see the cloud with the silver lining
why did it have to take me two years
to see these obvious things so clear
My heart was broken
and it took forever to heal
was I living off a prayer or a dream?
Sometimes things did not seem real
Say goodbye to the past
lock it up but don't forget what's happened
I have gained my own redemption
after 16 some odd months
and I am whole again
Author notes

Very nice...
It is so true that often in our grief and brokeness we do not see the love and healing that is available to us. This has been my lesson lately; to let the love of those who do really care for me in. This is a lovely poem. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and feelings with us.
