The Torment <br /> <br />Sorrow swalowed me into the cruel black sea, <br />The icy cold water washed over me, <br />Memories spin around in my mind, <br />Causing dark lucid dreams of every kind. <br />Grief and misery played their part, <br />Leaving behind a broken heart <br /> <br />The Healing <br /> <br />Slowly the water ebbed away, <br />The blackness mellowed to a shade of grey, <br />Time as the healer showed the way, <br />Helping me to cope day by day, <br />Fear subsiding, confidence riegns, <br />Ready to face the world again <br /> <br />The Future <br /> <br />The waters now are calm and clear, <br />My life again is full of cheer, <br />Smiles return and with them light, <br />The grey is replaced by colours so bright, <br />Though life was cruel, when it took you away, <br />I look to the future as a brand new day<br /><br />Bridgid Patrick<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/3-stages-of-grief/
