Still Mourning
Screams fill my mind
As tears fall silently
The injustice stings
The pain deepens
Darkness calls me
Pain is so much
I need to forget
I need to bury it
The darkness beckons
No reprieve in sight
The burden weighs heavy
The anger and grief
Choking me
Another life taken
Another friend gone
The cycle of loss
Continuing indiscriminately
Wondering when will it end?
All this loss and pain
Rips open my heart
As I remember
Others taken too soon.
