Grief

Sometimes grief feels like your heart has a wound that refuses to heal.

Sometimes grief feels like your heart is bleeding and you can’t stop it.

Sometimes grief feels like someone took your heart out of your chest

And left it to die.

Sometimes grief feels like you want to curl up on your bed alone and cry.

Sometimes grief feels like your world crashed and you don’t know how to go on.

Sometimes grief feels like you don’t know how to pick yourself up.

Sometimes grief feels like you’re set on fire with anger.

Sometimes grief feels like the pain will never go away.

And Sometimes grief feels like you should have done more.

And you wonder if they knew how much you cared.

Sometimes it leaves guilt cause they left while you were on bad terms, and the effects of that feel like they will haunt you for the rest of your life.

Sometimes grief feels like you were a few weeks late on delivering on your promise.

Sometimes grief feels like you were laughing today and they are gone tomorrow.

Sometimes grief feels like you thought they would get better, but they didn’t.

It feels like your future got ruined, and all the plans you made turned to dust... blowing in the wind.

Like they should have walked you down the aisle.

Like they should have held your first born.

Like they should have been at your graduation, so you smile in the pictures, but you wish they were standing next to you.

And sometimes grief feels like you made it in life, but they weren’t there to see all that you became.

So do it now, fulfill the promises now. Reconcile now. Tell them how much they mean now. Cause death comes like a thief and you don’t know when or when will be the last time.
