I put a poinsetta on yr grave
And as the snow blankets it with sorrow
My hot tears turn icy
Nothing can console me now
Because I don't have you to comfort me
This year, it won't be of glee that I cry
If someone asks, what I want
They could never fulfill my desire
Because all I want is a hug from you
More than anything else
It's hard to lose a loved one. I've been an orphan for many years now. I still miss my parents.
A poignant poem. The deep sadness expressed in this poem augments it's value. I quote, 'My hot tears turn icy, nothing can console me now'....powerfully expressed dear LeeAnn. Top score.
Oh, I've been down that road to. It soon will be time to visit Tina's grave to make it tidy for Christmas.
If this poem is based on the facts of your life, I truly hope you find someone available with a hug which can take away some of the sadness. Well done. ;) bri
Very sad poem that demonstrates the level of sorrow people go through at the loss of a loved one. Thanks for sharing.
Such a deeply moving poem! .. And the precious meaning of a hug, May your loved one in heaven know! .. So beautifully expressed! .. Definite Stars! ..+++++
The irreparable loss is most heart rending in the line, "a ll I want is a hug from you More than anything else", knowing fully well that, that hug is never to come. Ohh! ! !
Very emotional and touching. Bereavement is the most affecting grief, most lasting. Leaves a void that does not get filled easily. Magically penned
a beautiful write in the memory of loved one.....with best wishes / pc
