Stillen Gedenken
Grieving the Living
By Cindy CalderPublished 2 years ago • Updated 2 years ago • 1 min read

In Stillen Gedenken (Silent Remembrance)
Silence, a reckoning you brought and demanded, detonated,
Imploding to deny a bond so wondrously created at your birth. I’ll
Lament your absence from my life, miss your face and laughter for all
Existence while
Navigating through days of longing for you amid depths of emptiness,
Crying nights and grieving the absence of you, my dearest child, for
Evermore, until I breathe no more....and then from my grave.
