Writing what we feel when we grieve will help us feel a little better.

Today,April 25,2009 at 7:30 AM, the dear grandmother of my husband died and writing this is just my way of expressing what I am feeling.

What do I feel today?

I know it will come

But when it did,

I was hoping it didn’t.

Disappointment,

Sadness and

Sorrow,

Words that were

not part of my life

for three years

are here again.

This can weaken me

But cause of God’s light

I feel strong.

I hope the whole family

will feel His hand

holding each one of us

as we grieve for

the lost of a loved one.

    Hi Dee,

    I understand perfectly how it feels having lost 7 people that are dear to me due to various causes. I lost my best friend in a car crash and I didn’t get to apologize for a disagreement we had prior to the accident. I grieved for many years and still do.
