Finding A New Pathway Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Heaving heavy sighs of sorrow as it touches my being,
emanating from a friend's inner insistence of an
emptiness filling him with the loss of his wife's
embrace.

Knowing that he's suffering greatly, holding his mind
in mine for the time being.

Crippled for the moments that he can't hold or be with
her, forlornly taking steps in aimless directions, no
where to lay his head, where there is any joy to greet
him.

Sunrises setting on his mind, not allowing the beauty
of the morning to be seen as it appears on the horizon.

Nothing to look forward to in this present state of
affairs, nothing can be done.

Until he finds his new pathway through life with what
family and friends he has left to support him during
this time of grief and loneliness.
