Weep

The tears fell from your eyes

As you told me the sad news

‘She died this week’ you cried

And your grief rose up inside

 

My heart reached out to you

As compassion flooded in

You looked so sad sat there

Your body limp and thin

 

Can’t bear to feel your pain

My hand rests upon your heart

I want to ease your hurt

For I know it’s just the start

 

You’ll miss her always now

No head resting on you

No unconditional love

Part of you constant blue

 

You go about your day

And my eyes flow for two

I cry your tears and mine

It’s all that I can do

 

Your loss so very deep

Don’t let sorrow take a hold

But allow yourself to weep

These tears will cleanse your soul
