Don’t tell me about grief
If you can believe
That his soul stays alive
In a place of your fantasy
Don’t mock my mourning
By claiming yours to be
equal in sadness
and as crushing in gravity.
Don’t say you understand
when I cannot breath
As the weight of his last breath
Collapses me to the ground.
Don’t pledge your hope
or reward me with pity
For I know there is nothing
He is gone.
Don’t tell me about grief
If you can believe
That he will live again
In a place of your fantasy
