The Exponential hurt of a heartbreak

When you’re old

Wounds from the past you thought were healed gape open and ooze out [the serum of] harm previously inflicted

The pain is deep and personal and a past memory becomes current and present

The exponential hurt of a heart break

When you’re old

Doesn’t feel good

You thought you knew better

You feel like such a fool

(I’m too old for this crap)

Embarrassment of another failed flight

The exponential hurt of a heart break

When you’re old

Time stands still to allow a minute to lick your wounds

A kind supportive word   friend helps a little to remind you that you are loved.

Embrace the warm-felt intention

The exponential hurt of a heart break

When you’re old

This too shall pass

And you know that’s your truth.

Homeless Tears – Tears of Grief

Oh.

The.

Pain.

Whether you miss someone

Ache for someone…or thing

Tears of grief cannot be denied

Try to choke them back

You nearly choke yourself

Really try to “hold it together”

Your heart may rebel; your digestive system may kick up

Allow these tears of grief to flow

They have no home inside of YOU!

I will never forget the time when I was at the vet

I saw a big, muscular tough looking man; cry intently because he had just put his dog down.

He did not cry like a baby; or he did not cry like a girl!

He cried like a man who lost his best friend, his companion.

Don’t hold back your tears of grief

They have no home inside of YOU!

These homeless tears of grief are contagious.

I dare you to watch a young child cry over the loss of a grandparent and not shed a tear or two.

That was how I felt when Christian said “Grandmother, I didn’t know it was you.”

He was eight and now he is gone at 26.

The tears of grief are palatable

They are large and heavy…

And if the human body wasn’t so much water, we might just shrivel up crying tears…

Because tears of grief are like someone is strangling your soul!

Squeezing are tight as they can…

Tears of grief are homeless

They have no place in you.
