You’re pulled, instantaneously
into a moment, with the news
you knew it was coming, one day
but it didn’t change a thing
How do we not feel?
how do we not mourn?
our heart aches – not from regret
but from the memory of what was
of the young lives
that once loved and cried together
that created life together
but could not be
Our tears honor the human being
who touched our lives
who would forever touch our lives
despite divergent paths
It’s an ending
and here you are
left to remember
Your heart, that has seen much
is left with no choice
but to expand once more
making you softer, wiser
more present and aware
of the gifts that exist now
in your life
Your heart aches – not from regret
but from the love
that exists within you
that has always existed
within you
