Empty Ground

Awesome visual and your haiku is heavy. Lots of emotion and darkness in this one. Fantastic!

Thank you, I need an outlet for the pain. That is my morning coffee watching my mom cry in agony for my dad.
I appreciate you reading and nice comment

I have a friend's mom who went through that, and it took a toll on the whole family. Portrayed your pain eloquently. Fia xoxo

Thank you so very much. It's taken a great toll on my life.
I'm happy to be a writer who can make art of it, to try to make sense of it.

Always nice when you stop bye!

This sounds unbearable, stay strong.

There is no word so harrowing in existence that could truly describe the pain
Thank you for your support.

I don't like to post personal things too often.

I felt that... your words just made me feel it...

That's a very high compliment. Thank you.

Dear D,

This poem is so poignant my mental balance felt like the proverbial rug being yanked out from underneath. That gut punch of anguish and sadness that feels so bottomless. I’m very sorry about your mom and I’m relieved for you there is your lovely poetry to help express some of these feelings. H🌷

Hi. Thank you. I really appreciate your comments.
I feel like the only way to make sense of it sometimes
is to create art.
I'm very grateful for everyone's support.

So hard to suffer one's own grief. No less painful to witness it in a loved one

It is very painful. Thank you for reading!
She forgets too, so it's a vicious cycle.

This reminds me all that is coming for those I love.

I hope she finds other emotions, too, such as joy with such a thoughtful child of hers, like you...

Thank you. I try to bring some quality of life.
Dementia is brutally cruel.
