Writing is Therapeutic

When your heart’s breaking
Writing is therapeutic
Pour tears through your pen

Through your broken heart
You may not have a plan
But it helps to vent

A friend brought flowers
Weeping hearts to match my own
Hugs and prayers to heal

Another friend brought
A loving white weeping heart
To soothe my sad soul

He planted the hearts
In the ground near our front door
Owen’s reminder

Owen brought great joy
His death was a tragic thing
I am still in shock

Jumped through the window
While attached to a choke leash
Owen hung himself

I need that comfort
Wish He had been with Owen
Maybe He was there

Before Owen died
He had a wonderful day
Tumbling with Zeke

Do you have a pet?
If so, cherish him or her
I am sure you do.

Thank you for reading
My heartfelt but sad ramblings
Writing brings relief

With the help of friends
We are smiling through our pain
God bless you, my friends

Love,
JanBeek
(and Bob)

    Nat king Cole sang a Wonderful song about heartache. In it, he says smile, though your heart is aching, smile while your heart is breaking. Owen will live on, in our hearts and our memories.

    Smile though your heart is aching
    Smile even though it’s breaking
    When there are clouds in the sky, you’ll get by
    If you smile through your fear and sorrow
    Smile and maybe tomorrow
    You’ll see the sun come shining through for you
    Light up your face with gladness
    Hide every trace of sadness
    Although a tear may be ever so near
    That’s the time you must keep on trying
    Smile, what’s the use of crying?
    You’ll find that life is still worthwhile
    If you just smile
    That’s the time you must keep on trying
    Smile, what’s the use of crying?
    You’ll find that life is still worthwhile
    If you just smile
