Grief journey

Your heart
isn’t a faucet
you can turn off.

Your sadness
isn’t an inconvenience
you have to wait out
until you can get back
to your old life.

Your anger at the emptiness
isn’t too much
or too loud
or too misshapen.

Your grief is behaving exactly right.

And all you can do is trust
that this ache
is your heart
being dug out
so that it can one day
hold even more
joy.
