The Grievance
By mikeygreenleaf
Lost my Aunt in a car accident today this was for her hope it makes sense
I wanted to honor her belief system in the process
The Grievance
We part under protest
Hearts aching implore
As angels escort you
To heavens front door
The reason the question
Our queries ignored
Reluctant we give your
Light back to the Lord
Our Father in heaven
Extend us your grace
Note that under duress
Silence stands in your place
If we must endure
Without wondering why
Your motive is suspect
Demands we comply
His hardest to take
Are the closest to you
Even God had to give
A life up so we knew
That forever he loved us
Not one, two, or few,
But all are his children
He suffers death too

Great poem, I don't know how was your relationship, but surely a lost hurts.
