Road of Grief

The road of grief has no shortcuts
 or detours. The only way to healing
 is straight through the night.
So shed every tear.
Cry every cry.
Think every thought.
Feel every feeling.
Embrace every pain.
Tell every story.
Ask every question.
Remember every memory.
Treasure every belonging.
Look at every picture.
Pray every prayer.
Sing every song.
Read every book.
Write every word.
And somewhere along the journey
you will find the morning light.
