I felt the need to search out a special poem. I have read so many posts of loved ones lately asking "does the pain ever subside? Is there a light at the end of this tunnel? Will I ever get better? Will I ever smile again?"
We are all traveling down this road...holding hands with one another...providing hope when we just don't know how long we can stand on our own and if we do, for how long before we fall. June 12th is the anniversary of my brother taking his life. Some days it seems like yesterday....my heart does not bleed as badly now but the scars will always remain. I hope this poem will give you hope, peace and vision for a better tomorrow. Mourning Storm © By Mary C. Hyzer The luminous sky is covering up, as clouds roll quietly in smokey gray intimidation, satiated droplets like sin. The sky once lit by optimistic light, watch the clouds move in with a menacing might. Pushing people and creatures back in to their shells, the darkness envelops with a story to tell. The calm days are over the purity gone, as the storm sneaks in just a bit before dawn. The first wetness falls, slowly at first then drenches the lands insatiable thirst. Zigzag lightning escorts claps of earsplitting thunder, provoking desperate thoughts and feelings of wonder. Next comes the downpour, releasing its rage slipping so boisterously from its cotton-like cage. Thunder crashes again not once, but more and more pushing the people farther inward; keeps pounding at the door. But the rain becomes less forceful and the thunder is subdued, it slowly lightens up as most storms eventually do. The land is now replenished flowers bloomed and grass so plush The storm moves on to another place just as it came; in such a rush.
