Loss

they are confused,

they thought they knew me

and now they have to face they never did


the things they were not there for

i tried to tell them about

but loving people can often cause blindness


we love deeply

and because we love so deeply

we can hear another's story and shut them out


it happens fast

we do not even realize we do it

and it continues like a cancer in the blinding dark of love


the story goes in our ears

and moves like lightning through our minds

we are unaware of how to help


pain, anger, resentment, denial,

all stages of healing

and grief....


when someone we love is hurt

they are grieving a loss

and it is the same as grieving a death


without being present for these emotions

within ourselves,

we cannot be present for another's


without developing a healthy grieving manner

we can never be there to help 

another help themselves


so now, the pain of not knowing me

knowing i was alone

there comes denial


you were not alone!

(guilt)

god was there!

you asked for it!


blame god then

you always did like seeing him hang on that cross

but don't try to tell me it never happened
