Simple grief

bruised inside
unable to feel
my edges

the weight dyed
into me now,
a flaw

a hollow bell
ringing itself,
silent

  1. Interesting to see you using brevity here. I find it perfect for the emotion and the title “Simple Grief”.

    Outstanding poem, really powerful…the ending metaphor is striking.
