So Lost....
It's like one day you're just here
born into a life that you
grow with overtime
They teach you as a child that
everyone eventually dies
Its apart of life that no one has
control of except for God
God says when it's our time
to die but we don't know
when that will happen
where
why
or how it will happen
but it's in is hands
That's what we are told but
no one ever tells us what
happens after the fact of a
family member's passing
No one tells you that the rest of the family
that's still living then
falls apart and
everything you knew and
everything you know changes forever
with no warning signs
It becomes total silence over the entire family
there are no longer any
get togethers at the holidays
no more family gatherings
no communication with any but
a small few who like to stay in touch
How is one supposed to prepare for something like this
something like this that no one ever told you about
what happens after the death of family
where does one go from here
what does one do after this
how does one deal with the grief
the grief of the loss of their loved ones
About this poem
It's about feeling unsure of what to do after you lose a loved one, like where does one go from there.
