GRIEF

This is how grief goes;

First,

It will be like a dream,

You try to keep everything normal as you can.

You pretend it didn't happen

Or you pretend you can go on

As if it didn't happen,

Maybe you get angry at the world,

That its injustice.

Angry at anything or anybody really,

Then you are just sad,

Your joy is gone,

Your smile fades,

You see that person everywhere

And nothing looks the same anymore;

All the things you believed in are shaking,

Your whole foundation;

Things that were certain

Now comes into questioning

And then one day you finally tell yourself,

So far it happened and God let it,

If He did,

Then what does He want me to do about it?

How am I supposed to respond?
