Morning breaks and the cold air
That gathers speed, bites harshly
Cruelly
As Breaking hearts
Fall in pieces and smother
The souls that mourn you
A life, that lived
With love and laughter
Is lost amid
Pain and bewilderment
And the howl of grief
Will capture the world
And seep into all of us
And broken sorrow
Will forever
Hold your name on our lips

From one who has experienced such pain and loss - you have captured the emotions with an amazing rawness and yet an underlying sensitivity.
