Today I am in love
With grief and sorrow
Don’t try and pull me away
Or cheer me up
There is nothing wrong
Let me drown a while
In this vast ocean
I will die ten thousand times
And feel the wave
Of suffering
And my own helplessness
It will be terrible
And beautiful
And, like all things,
Will pass in its own time
I am not the author of any of this
But I surrender into it.

Poetry of Beauty 
Beautifully expressed – I slip in an out of grief’s grip still, two years plus after losing my son. I do not want grief relief, only a bit of time alone to listen, absorb, incorporate grief’s multitude of offerings. Thank you for sharing this poem.
