Your poem is tragic yet beautiful. I feel for you. I hope you find your way soon. The pain of loss, our emotional pain, is often is as painful as what we feel physically as CRPS patients. In fact, it can bring on our physical pain. My hope for you is peace. Thinking about you.

A knife that twists and turns

Leaving a hollow, empty space

The love I felt was real

longing to hold, to touch

Loss leaves an ache so strong

my tears fall like rain

failing to purge my broken heart

leaving numbness through the pain

Breathless, clinging to life

fighting to dream

I stand, shoulder the weight

It settles and shifts

Heavy, dense, and thick

Sometimes I fall

stumbling and lost

But, I still have hope

And a Mothers love

Strong, steadfast, and depthless

I find strength

To stand, to stay

To live
