"Mourning is Over" By WordsDoMatter
http://allpoetry.com/poem/5013417
A twitch of my finger that didn’t feel right. A prelude to battles I’m destined to fight.A message my body was attempting to give. Stop speeding through life and learn how to live.Life passes you by when you go way too fast. Things that take time are things that will last.The voice grew stronger and louder each day.I’d speak to my hand, but it wouldn’t obey.This inner-rebellion, this fight for control,a breakdown of mind, of body, and soul.My thoughts were ignore this ridiculous stand,when my foot then decided to join with my hand.What once worked together as a unified team,defiantly mocked the pursuit of my dream.A spiritual turmoil, a conflict had dawned.My body’s left side reluctant to respond.I went to the Doc, to confirm what I felt. A Parkinson’s diagnosis was unjustly dealt.A “woe-is-me” attitude came out for a while. A guilty conviction with no chance for trial.I started to withdraw so others wouldn’t see,this insidious destruction going on inside me.We all have our struggles or demons we face. I’ve learned to live life at a much slower pace.But the mourning is over! I now am confessing,this burden I bear is more of a blessing.I don’t fly through life like I did once before. Enjoying the journey, you see so much more.What I used to condemn, I now “Thank God!”I refuse to be shaken by Satan’s facade.God gave me a purpose, it’s my humble prayer,this might be a blessing to someone somewhere.
This text is about mourning. The writter uses very descriptive words to show how he felt and how her feels now. Mourning is like being in a depression, but not as intense. People often go into mourning when a loved one passes, or something like that. I personally have never been in mourning, but I know people that have. They say that it is extremley hard to overcome sometimes. Hopefully I wont have to deal with such pain for quite some time!
