This poem came from my soul. Yesterday, I received yet another middle of the night phone call, bearing the sorrowful news of the passing of a loved one...my Uncle Andrew, who will be so dearly missed. My heart is deeply saddened and I feel so very weary.
Weary...
Weary,
Teary,
My eyes are bleary,
I cannot see,
What's in front of me.
I'm tired of tears,
Worn out by fears,
Will it leave me alone,
This sorrow from the phone?
My heart aches,
My hands, they shake,
I lie awake,
This pain, it just won't slake.
I cannot bear...anymore goodbyes,
My soul is weary,
From the tears it cries,
And the deafening echoes,
Of its sighs.But reaching through,
To help me fight,
I see the light,
Of Hope...shining bright;
May my loved ones, also,
Feel the warmth of its light.

Thank you so much for your post and your prayers, Nissie. Yes, I know you, too, have recently been touched by loss. *HUGS* I know I will have more ahead, I'm just so weary for anymore in the near future. Please, God, don't take them away just yet. :'( xoxo
