Sacred Grief Song
This grief
is a sacred song
I hold dear for the rest of my life
I find myself humming
at unexpected moments
flashes of you arise
you are here
a flicker
a flame
that lives eternally
(this love)
beyond space and time
ever-near
ever-after
This grief does not go away
I cannot wish it away
(do not want to)
for it is inextricably connected
to our love
profoundly
and as unbreakable
as water is to
wave is to
Ocean
