Grief

By Vanya Kaul

Grief: the complex of emotions

There is love in everything

she believed,

Even in the lament,

the sorrow felt

is not because

one is gone,

it is simply because

of the love that could not be expressed

to the one gone.

It fills her eyes to remember

how she could have done more

but, chose not to

because

she thought she had time.

Alas,

the endless time flew

and all she could do was regret.
