Sadness fills our hearts, but her legacy lives on.  Keep on writing.

this reaches deep. dear friend.

This poem starts by describing harsh realities and ends with heartfelt emotions. I empathise, having lost my paternal grandmother in painfully similar circumstances. You have my deepest sympathies, not least because you establish a common frame of reference in your poetry. Be strong and keep writing.

I hope it's just a story, however it's one that most of us can relate to. My sympathies if it's true.

Hi, KP

This is a poem of deepest action and deeper thought.  It pretends not to offer lollipops or cotton candy.  It is raw.  It is painful.  It is a call from the dark.  It wears no disguise.  It wears no mask.  It sounds like a soul just hollering out.

Are these three lines SHE?
as
my mother
starves

And are these three lines YOU?
tears fall
into
the abyss

I trust you are sharing only a vicarious experience.

Sincerely
cab

The end of life stage is heart wrenching for our loved ones, and the rest of us who have to bare witness to sufferance as such.

The sooner voluntary euthanasia becomes accessible as a standard option, the better for all of us.

Peace be unto you and yours…🌹
