World stopping

um..it's in the title

They don't get it
can't they see
don't they know

 

it hurts because he is gone
he had to say goodbye
and they can't tell

 

the pain in my eyes
the dullness in my actions
the lack of enthusiasum in life

 

can't they speak
of what has happened
my world stopped

 

they say push past it
but it's a constant reminder

this town in which he lived

 

where I grew up is now
a pain filled place
like a stab in the gut

 

where he lay
I still weep
where he is
I wish to be

Wow, this is so sad but well written and beautiful. I know how it feels to lose someone close and dear to you. It definitely feels like the world decided to stop altogether from all of the pain and hurt. Great job with capturing all of your emotions :)

Outstanding! I wrote a poem 'look to the butterflies' in hopes that my children will have something to help when I pass...though sometimes, it will seem like nothing will ever dull the pain. Never become numb...numbness is a bitter pill only masking what must be embraced. Death is the freedom some pray for to relieve the pain that surpasses the pain of saying goodbye. We must live well, to give propose to the legacy our fathers passed on through us. We live for the ones that died.

Thank you. I know my dad is not hurting anymore all I wish is that the pain could have stopped here on earth. and even if he did have to die i wish all the secrets that he kept wold have come out bc my ex step mom made him change the will only seven hours before he died and he was on all the morphine and stuff.

Losing a loved one is hard, even harder when people don't seem to understand.

This touched my heart. A poem filled with sadness and loss. It's not easy to say Goodbye. It's okay to cry and miss them, even if no one else understands. One day we'll meet our loved ones again though. Try to live a happy life that makes him look down on you and smile until then. I can't say I know entirely what it's like to lose a dad, but I do know what it's like to lose someone who's very close to it. Never lose what he named you after, Hope. ^_^
