Wall Art

Gary and Liz took the wall art you liked and had hanging on our shed.
It looks nice, glad they can enjoy it like you did.


 

Grief turns us into keepers

Grief turns us into keepers of ordinary things.
Pieces of them left behind.
What we keep isn't denial.
It's live refusing to quit.
Love refusing to file the paperwork.
And maybe that's what every grieving person quietly understands:
You are not holding on to things. You are holding on to them.
 


Death took you

You physically died that day.
I died too, just only on the inside.
Death took you, grief took me.
I'll never be who I was before that day.
