The Cloud Of Grief Poem by Jayne Louise Davies

Thoughts are running riot,
In this sleepy head of mine,
A range of mixed emotions,
Taunt me all the time,
I can't shake off this feeling,
That I'll not see you again,
I feel I'm living in a dream,
And if I count to ten,
The phone may ring,
I'll hear your voice,
A sound I loved to hear,
To hear you laugh yet once again,
Would bring so many tears,
Of joy, but that's impossible,
My mind's just playing tricks,
So many lovely memories,
I couldn't take my pick,
I tell myself, I must accept the fact that life goes on,
But find it so unreal now,
That you are finally gone.
Photographs may comfort me,
But life is not the same,
I only wish by magic,
I could bring you back again.
