Bitter Ends

Once upon a time you were gruff fear to me.
Now, you’re all elderly disability.

Who are you now without instruction’s control?
How can you serve others from your self-dug hole?

We worry about the pain that you’re in.
How do you cope? You weren’t the strongest of men.

Goodbye comes next; but I know not what to say.
You’re ready to go. I’ll not stand in your way.

Endearment just wasn’t on your bucket list.
There’ll be a measure of grief & you’ll be missed.

I see the world through a Painter’s eyes and process it with a Poet's Heart....it's quite a harsh place for the soul. It scratches and wears your true self down, at times, but the Beauty is Addictive. I feel for everyone I encounter. Everyone I encounter is a teacher if I'll let them be. I Empathize with everyone I talk to & I Think about Everything-LEVi
