| GRIEF |
| When you think about your family, your loved ones, your friends You assume they'll always be there, In your mind there is no end Then fate comes along and before you know it, someone has been taken away Your world is shattered, people are talking but you don't hear what they say Your body seems to be working, the world appears to be the same But now the heart feels empty, your eyes water on hearing their name You feel life will never be the same, everywhere you look is his face Nowhere seems like home now and there's a void in every place You need to know everyone feels the loss, the heartache and the pain And as time goes on you'll learn to cope and smile once again. |

| I dedicate this poem not only to my Joey but to all of his family and anyone who knew Michael, a true gem if ever there was one! |
