Limbo
Do you ever just sit on the phone with someone but find you can’t find words to express yourself?
Anguish.
Pain.
Fear.
I’m wordless.
I’m breathless.
I’m blinded by grief.
I want escape.
I want this to end.
I want to go back to before.
Before I lost her.
Before she was in pain.
Before I loved her too much.
Too much to be able to live without her.
It’s not a choice…
I’m out of choices.
I’m out of energy.
I’m out of my depth.
When will this get easier?
When will this stop hurting?
When will I be done crying?
I’m tired of feeling.
I’m tired of hurting.
I’m tired of crying.
I’m tired of being without you.
I miss you more than I can express.
I don’t know how to carry on.
I don’t know how to move on.
I don’t know how to go on without you.

Tea set by a suffragette
Pankhurst is a name well known to the history of women’s suffrage. Who hasn't heard the name Emmaline Pankhurst, founder of the Women's Social and Political Union (WSPU), an all-women organisation campaigning for the right to vote? The group that helped to achieve the right to vote for women in Great Britain and Ireland in 1918. Some know of her daughter Christabel, both being honoured by the Pankhurst memorial in Victoria Palace Gardens, London, right next to the UK Parliament buildings. Sylvia Pankhurst is notably not included in the monument. Why? Because she split with the WSPU to campaign against Britain's entry into First World War.

Gosh, this was so relatable! It felt like you had a look inside my heart and wrote this poem. I just love it so much! So emotional!
Thank you for reading my story. I feel for you in the excellent poem and have subscribed to your channel
I lost my mother-in-law a year and a half ago, and I felt this!! GREAT READ!!
Donna, I worked most of my early career in Canada and I'm concerned that your work lacks the required number of "eh"s...lol
Very powerful, very relatable. You have me in my feelings. Great work!
Oh dear. You took my advice, now I can't keep up. Ha. Wonderful. I feel every emotion. Well done, Just spell DEPTH, you left off the h. Time heals all wounds they say. I say pain just gets buried and resurfaces here and there. But it lessens and we find the strength to fight on, it gets better, Sometimes much better.
