LOVE THROUGH LOST

This is a destination i wrote about to a friend whose father past away last year. I have never known what to tell someone who lost who they love, I feel sorry is enough. The rest to help console are just lies which i think makes them feel as though we perceive them to be dumb in grief. So i dedicate this to anyone who has lost someone they love. Love found through lost. 

You will be told not to cry and that
God gives and God takes, don’t cry and that all will be okay.
Everything happens for a reason and that a better place awaits.
But I ask which place?
 

My intent is not to console but to question.
Is demise the last result?
Must love fly out the window without warning?
Must embraces fade as though never existed?
And mind left in chaos?
 

Yet you will be told not to cry and that
God gives and God takes, don’t cry and that all will be okay.
Everything happens for a reason and that a better place awaits.
But I ask which place?
 

Home is where kisses in given to you on the forehead
Called you and said, “never mind what they say, you are the best”.
“Never give up for you can do anything”.
You did that which was right because he stared you down.
Scolded you yet put you on his laps and said “ it will be alright and it was for your good”.
Then you think how ironic. Hahaha
 

Yet you will be told not to cry and that
God gives and God takes, don’t cry and that all will be okay.
Everything happens for a reason and that a better place awaits.
But I ask which place?
 

But I say to you,
Curse death, ask God why?
Cry out tears of blood for its all not okay.
Why? Because joy had departed.
Curse the tongue that tells you there is a reason for love lost.
 

But then again,
Smile and laugh in your tears.
He might have found a better place.
A place with no afflictions.
Living free and with you always.
For there is no better place than your heart.
