Sadness.

Folder: 
Poetry by Bern.
  • SADNESS.

  • Dewy tear drops on your cheek,
  • Barren loneliness that you seek.
  • A form of sadness weighs you down.
  • Bereavement clothes you like a gown.
  • A human frailness I do see,
  • On your visits, rare to me.
  • Have you lost that costly spark,
  • That guides we humans through the dark.
  • Must your sorrow so sadly clear,
  • Cling through to my unwilling ear.
  • For each one of us alone,
  • Has a wanting to atone.
  • A need of love forever lost,
  • An endless time of foreboding frost.
  • The coldness of that waiting grave,
  • Frantic efforts your way to pave.
  • To bring back to life, once more,
  • With love and tenderness, so very sure.
  • That you dear friend, may with me,
  • Go hand in hand through eternity.
