Poems n Ramblings - 1. A Brief Moment

A Brief Moment is a poem I wrote out of the loss of my soulmate.
Cut flowers share a beauty that transcends their death.
We see stars that have long since died, but they'll continue to shimmer n shine long after we're gone.
And in the great scheme of things we're all here for a brief, but significant, moment...especially in the hearts n minds of loved ones.
A flower plucked up,
to be enjoyed for but a moment.
 
Released to the heavens,
to shine as a star.
 
Long gone….
twinkling mischievously.
 
A reminder of memories,
and what the future holds.
 
Loss affects us in many ways, it's not so much about how we deal with it, it's the outcome - the results that count in the end.

A very nice poem, Magic...it makes me feel good about my own loss. After seven years, losing Kevin still hurts--but he couldn't take the bad luck life had dished out to him anymore, or the uncaring controlling parents he was given. I have to hope he's happier now and that we'll meet again over the Bridge.
Thanks for that.

 

Yeah loss is a bitch n it's either made better or worse by those around you. I'm sorry for your loss.

 

I simply isolated myself from that...my simple coping mechanism.

 

I suppose the trick is to guard your heart n not to close it off...
