IT’S A HEART THING
Healing grief is not a head thing.
Healing grief is a heart thing.
And when the heart speaks
to you
in silence
it says
I know darkness.
Deep
all-encompassing
endless
darkness
so I will be light
for the next person.
I know loneliness.
Even in (especially in)
a room full of people
so I will be friend
for the next person.
I know terror.
Indescribable
inexplicable
terror
so I will be comfort
for the next person.
And I know despair.
Paralyzing
can’t-get-out-of-bed
life is too dark
despair
so I will be hope
for the next person.
Grief is the teacher.
The life-giving
heart-expanding
teacher.
Grief is the teacher
when you choose to say yes
to life
to love
to your beloved,
to your very self.
And healing grief is a heart thing.
