Paul’s grief
chose not to speak
unable to find
the right words.
He purchased words for his grief
over the internet
but they would not arrive
for two days.
In the mean time
Paul supplied his grief
with his drawing pads
and colored pencils
hoping that
it would create a message
through an art image
before his heart broke.
