Language of loss

The language of losing parents
Does not translate into any truth 
It just leaves you in isolated emptiness
A space beyond what you ever knew 
This long lost empty journey 
Nests in a home of memories
Where sometimes you feel quite normal 
Another moment ~ floating in misery
Crying for no reason it seems
When heavy memories emerge and appear 
When you least expect that simple song
Long forgotten now, oh so clear  
When do the tears stop crying? 
When will my damaged heart heal?
When will I ever feel like I’m family again?
Now that my parents are gone ~ so unreal
