How To Deal With Grief?

[Evanescent]

When my grandmother died after her chemo failed, I used to bake whenever I felt sad. It's something we used to do together, and now it helps me cherish those moments we shared together.

 

My condolences, and heartfelt sympathy for your loss.

 

 

One day

 

The seed that is, today,

Buried

 

Will flower

Will bear fruit

And one day, browning, wilt and die.

 

But that brown

Will be the brown

Of a life well lived

 

Weathered with storms

Yet washed anew with dew

When dawn came.

 

Yet also a brown

A mournful brown

Of regret

 

For what life, once lived

Once loved, once filled

 

With joy, can go out,

and in sleep's embrace rest

Without a wistful tinge

 

For what was not, yet could have been?
