Grief/you chose her 🖤

2025/5/11 Edited to

... Read moreGrief is a complex and personal experience, often described as a heavy burden that one carries after the loss of a loved one. It's important to understand that grief can manifest in various forms, including anger, sadness, and even guilt. The quote, "Your absence is the heaviest weight I've ever had to carry," highlights the depth of this emotional struggle. Moreover, there exists a quieter kind of grief that may not be widely discussed: the gradual change within oneself that follows a significant loss. This type often comes after the initial shock and is filled with reflective thoughts and memories, marking a different phase of coping. During these times, expressing feelings through creative outlets like collage can be a therapeutic process. Many find solace in art as a way to channel their emotions and share their stories. Phrases like, "My heart broke the day I saw you looked at her the way I look at you," resonate with those who have experienced deep love and loss. Engaging with communities that share similar experiences can also provide support. Forums and discussions allow individuals to connect over their shared grief, fostering understanding and healing in a safe space. Embracing these conversations can offer comfort and remind us that we are not alone in our feelings of loss.

Grief Isn’t Always About Death
“Grief isn’t just for the obvious losses. Sometimes it sneaks up quietly, in the spaces between growth. You’re not broken — you’re mourning the parts of yourself you had to let go to become who you are now.” You can grieve the old you and still be grateful for your evolution. You can cry over w

A black and white photo shows a couple embracing and dancing in heavy rain at night. They stand on a wet street beside a harbor with sailboats, illuminated by a streetlamp, with a grand building in the background. The scene captures the poem's mood of dancing through a storm.
The Harbor Chose My Name
Midnight hung low over the harbor, a bruised sky stitched with rain. The fog rolled in from the Atlantic like a ghost returning for something it forgot to take. The sailboats swayed in their slips, white skeletons rocking in black water, and we danced in the middle of the street, beneath c

Grief is a hard task.
Grief is a very hard task. It changes from minute to minute, hour to hour, day to day. It gets easier for a time and then suddenly smacks you upside your head and inside your heart. There is no one simple or single way to grieve. Grief has a life and mind of its own. It comes and goes at will. So
