Hidden Tears - Poetry for P.E.A.C.E.

(Parents of Estranged Adult Children Everywhere)

I am in the process of compiling my poetry about the emotions of estrangement.  As I review and edit I will share some with you my dear readers.   If all goes well this book will soon be ready for print.

What is grief?

Anguish upon awakening

Bemoaning what’s lost

Can you imagine?

Desolation and despair

Energy that evaporates

Feeling of isolation

Gloom and doom

Hurting with heartbreak

Injury to mind

Jaded viewpoint

Keening cry crescendos

Lamenting future lost

Melancholy overtakes me

Nobody can fathom

Overwhelming agony of

Pain filled days

Quiet nights weeping

Regrets and remorse

Sadness and sorrow

Torturous mind speak

Unwelcome painful reminders

Vex my remembering

Wretchedness my companion

Xiphoid stab wounds

Yet life continues

Zombie like walking
