I Go Crazy

Alexa played an old song,
“I Go Crazy” by Paul Davis.
God, the emotion that swelled.
I cried and I cried like
there would be no tomorrow.
Chris, when you were laid to rest,
I thought, no, I hoped
that my feelings were
laid to rest with you.
I think of you often .
I don’t try to think of you,
it just happens…………
the pain I still hold is
hidden by a false smile.
When I hear this song,

I still want to break something.
The grief and rekindled “whys”
from a life distraction, feels
just like yesterday my love.
Spontaneous tears
followed by laughter.
But I hope no one feels
need worry about me.
It’s not sanity that I’m after.
