Grief and Healing

Time is one of the healers

of our hearts’ wounds

 

As we move through

stormy days and months

the repairs begin

 

Through our pain

nature moves in

stitching our hearts

back togetther

 

We start to see

color around us

 

Is it really ok

for us to work

and play?

 

Sometimes it feels scary

being pulled back

into life

without the person

we loved

so much

 

As we move

talking baby steps

one minute at a time

one hour at a time

we come back

to our lives

with the understanding

that we have changed

 

No matter how different

we are

know this

that the love

we had

is still with us
