. - Coping - I had no way of knowing That staring at the wall of sympathy cards - Shopping for one that best suits your needs - Would inspire in me A host of reminders Of how close I have come To receiving my own For the very same reason. Sympathy isn't a strong enough word. It isn't the right word To express that Any heart can imagine The loss of a parent and the pain which follows The milestones they will miss The searching in vain in an audience he won't share. I am sorry. It isn't the right word, But it's the best that I have. You're only 18. . . #coping #poem #poetry #poetsofinstagram #amwriting #life #authorsofinstagram #writersofinstagram #author #writer
