    Poem Commentary

    I lost my daughter and granddaughter in a wreck in 2008, and almost mine as well. i put myself on meds every since then and have refused to face the pain and grief. I have finally come to the conclusion that I have to move on and handle the grief and what comes with it to recover.

    Freedom but not Free

     I feel the agony running thru my veins
    See him in our own lane
    I have cut off the beast
    That kept my memories on a leash

    It is time to feel the pain and weep
    Not hide it away in a foreign keep
    The tears rush in like tidal waves
    Have been coming for days

    HE carries me when I can not walk
    Gives me a voice when unable to talk
    No more pills to void my thoughts
    In a healing turmoil I am caught

    Freedom from the numbing meds
    But not free from grief in my head
    Time and GOD will heal my pain
    But until then the tears will rain

    The true philosopher and the true poet are one, and a beauty, which is truth, and a truth, which is beauty, is the aim of both.

    Ralph Waldo Emerson, American Poet (1803-1882)
