The Seasons of Loss - short poem
It's been a rough year, so here's my first completed vent poem in awhile. Earlier this year I heard my step-grandmother passed away. Then a few months later I nearly lost the life I've been building for two years. Followed by the news of Ish's grandmother. Then tonight I learned that my grandfather is extremely ill and there's likely not much that can be done. So, I'm thinking he won't make it longer than a month. I do hope this poem turned out well. I wrote this on 8/25/2017.

The end of winter,
Cold and harsh,
Ripped my heart to shreds.
As Spring arrived,
The tears were sewn,
Never meant to hold.
Summer's heat,
Proved too much,
All bonds I hold must die.
Now here I sit,
Legs forever still,
Waiting for Autumn's breeze.
The last wave of heat,
Adds another scar,
As he draws his final breath.
