18 Days Later by Gavin M RoyHave I grieved?
I've not cried out
Maybe felt the dam bulge
yet it quells the storm
Quiet introspection, memories
hint to simmering pain
Can't grief be dignified and non-disruptive?
I thought of you again today.
I didn't let it get the best of me. 04/21/2010 Posted on 04/21/2010 Copyright © 2025 Gavin M Roy

Posted by Quentin S Clingerman on 04/25/10 at 01:36 AM Grief is a lonely path except when shared. Trust your sharing has brought some consolation. And I found it helped to cry in my own experience of grief. |
