Sadness fails
Crashes
Hear
The wails.
Monster crawls
Full of regret
Finally getting
What he should
Get.
No remorse
Pity none
Turn the page
Forget
The rage.
Sadness can
No more
Be part of
Hate.

She’s coming home
I’ll pick her up
No more alone
Forever to stay here
Here at home.
May have sadness
Remorse and regrets
But she will lay
In peace and happiness
Forever, ever to be missed
My sweet
Sweet little miss.
Her soft, rough fur
Her gentle brown, caring eyes
Her tail that never wags
No barks, no romping
A smile upon her sweet face
I may see no more.
But home you’ll be
Home with me
Forever
Evermore.

Strangers meet
Smile and greet
Never again to see
One another
In this life
We know and be.
No remorse
No sadness
Nor gladness
Just strangers smiling
When they meet.

Remorse
Difficulty reigning here
Nothing clear
Nothing, nothing clear.
Muddle on
Focus and see
The way out
Of this turbulent sea.
