strength in grief

Obie 2022-03-21 09:03:12

Everything is going on
in peace, life and death
are in peace, pain and thoughts
are in peace, alone
in peace, perseverance
in peace, and return to life in peace.

Everything is so simple,
but relatives have quietly left
without even knowing it

Everything is so real
as if just now we were hugging each other and
staring at the sunset, which is no longer dazzling,

our tears have shed too much , and we continue to be strong
in grief

    Grace Phillips: [leaving a message] Hi everyone, it's mom! I just wanted to call and tell you how much I'm thinking of you. Stan, I guess you're at work now. Have you had a chance to go to that group thing yet? I think its a great idea. God, it's hot here. I'm not sure when I'm going to be able to call again. It might be a few days. I just wanted to tell you that I love you. And I miss you. Write me...
