"WALKING WITH GRIEF"
by Joanne Boyle
Side by side we walked, 
together grief and I. 
Carrying my life's remains
under a darkened sky. 
If the sun would shine again.
I asked if it would heal, 
if it could stop the pain. 
Grief took its time to speak.
I often wondered why.
Many times we sat together
and all i did was cry. 
Grief never ever left me. 
and then one day it said.
"Iam going nowhere, 
so learn to live with me instead."
I then befriended grief. 
It then began to talk.
I looked forward to its stories, 
when side by side we'd walk. 
Together we shared memories
that i had locked away. 
Grief is now a part of me, 
and i accept its here to stay.
