Hope
Foundation.
We are all born to grieve for one day, someone we love, will have to leave.
Finding a means to cope, will hopefully give birth to hope
By eventually embracing our darkness, we can find some sort of peace.
The Kübler-Ross 5 stages of grief:
Denial, Anger, Bargaining, Depression, and finally Acceptance.
Can't still believe it
Why
I'd do anything, take me
I'm staying in bed
I do miss them so, but at least I'll carry their memories with me
Everywhere I go
If you have been through grief, you probably will relate to the five stages
Hopefully, you are at the last stage but if not
The others are just another part of the healing process, and will help you turn their dark pages
Poem below:
