A Loss with No Name

Thank you Joy!
Come join us!

There is a loss I cannot name
It is an empty cry
And the only thing my voice can speak is
 why?
I reach my hand into the dark of night
And no longer see myself
I wonder who I have truly become
And I can only utter
A sigh…
To the entire world,
Why?

  1. These are hard days to be living through. I feel this poem, this "why?"

  2. This really speaks of that midnight emptiness, Carrie, where you search for meaning in a maze of confusion...been there, too many times really, and you express it eloquently. Thanks so much for participating in the 55.
