Through Life's Ebb and Flow

By Keira L.

Through Life's Ebb and Flow

In shadows cast by sorrow's heavy veil,

A soul adrift, through tempests fierce and frail,

A heart once whole, now shattered, torn apart,

Copes with grief, the ache of a wounded heart.


Through tear-stained nights, emotions surge and flow,

Like waves upon a desolate shore they go,

The ache of loss, a bitter pill to taste,

Yet in this darkness, hope still finds a place.


Through sorrow's fog, we seek a guiding light,

A glimmer 'midst the long and starless night,

The memories, a balm to soothe the pain,

In cherished moments, love's forever reign.


Grief's journey, slow and winding it may be,

A labyrinth we navigate, you see,

Yet strength emerges from the depths within,

As healing whispers through the hurt and din.


It's okay to weep, to feel the weight,

To let the tears fall freely and abate,

For in this purging, sorrow finds release,

And grants a solace, bringing inner peace.


Embrace the pain, for it will gently wane,

As time, a friend, will help to heal the strain,

The scars that linger, reminders of the past,

A testament that love forever lasts.


With tender care, we tend to heart and soul,

Embracing grief as part of being whole,

And as we journey through life's ebb and flow,

We find the strength to cope, to heal, to grow.
