Loss Is a Very Personal Thing

All mourn in different ways

No one should ever tell you how to feel
Overwhelming pain
From the onset of the news
Or complete numbness
To your very core

No one should ever tell you how to react
Some hide away
Refusing to accept it
While others share memories
Of days gone by

Loss is a very personal thing

Sharing is important but imposing your opinion on others is wrong...correct...loss is personal...
