There has been a death in the family...

There has been a death in the family.
There has been a death in the family.

No eulogy, no coffin,no funeral, no black.

And yet, there has been a death in the family.

No undertaker, no hearse,no cemetery, no grave.
No belly, no fullness, no lifeline, no baby.


There has been a death in the family.

  1. What a true poem...it expresses exactly how I feel! Thank you for sharing. I wish that I could be there to hug you and cry with you. Even after having been through the experience myself a couple of times, I don't know the right words to say. I don't know what to do. But know that I love you and I am praying for you. If you need to chat, you know my number! love ya girl!!
