CHASING GHOSTS - Haunted by The trauma of Memories and grief The hollow Gnawing feeling Of loss that forever Steal the moments Of life like a thief Grieving the love That was wanted and yet Never received And the angst and sadness Of things once believed Love and understanding Here then gone Those loved ones lost A different grief A pain demanding Lingers on Looking for answers Yet painfully knowing They'll never come Because In the wind they're blowing Long gone, vanished Yet a gathering sum With the providers Who held the truth And yet still The questioning pain Like chasing ghosts Knowing it's all in vain - JB, 25JUN2K24
