Poem Commentary

Still working through my grief since I lost my soul mate to Leukemia in October

My Prison

I am pushing on
Trying to move on
Since you've been gone
For days I don't cry
I feel my strength
But like a storm
Clouds reappear
My eyes begin to rain
As your face I see
Burnt into my Soul
I close my eyes tight
I should be closer
To healing from the pain
Letting Go
Moving on should be easy
As I slide back
Into my Dark Abyss
Where I hold onto Us
You said not to cry
A better place you would be
Freedom from your pain
You forgot to take mine with you
I stand alone in my pain
As I hope to join you someday
Living wihout you
A pain too hard to bear
If I don't have you
To make it alright
Why should I stay
Here in this world
Where you no longer exist
Smiles I paste upon my face
Hiding my pain
From those who wouldn't understand
But I keep on moving
Trying to find a reason
To Push on
Remain here on this earth
Could you whisper in my ear
"It's going to be Alright"
Before I give up this fight
For my own Freedom
Lay down and die

In science one tries to tell people, in such a way as to be understood by everyone, something that no one ever knew before. But in poetry, it's the exact opposite.

Franz Kafka (1883-1924) Czech writer.
