Text of Poem:
An Ocean of Grief
I cautiously watch the water
as it moves along the shore
creeping closer to the sand around my feet.
Beyond the crashing waves,
where the water is deepest green,
the ocean mirrors the depths of my grief.
My grief is like the ocean,
sorrow coming in like waves,
sometimes gentle like a ripple on the sea.
Other times it just engulfs me
with crushing waves of sadness
and undertows of despair wash over me.
Some days I wade out in it
splashing memories with my feet,
recalling days of sunshine on my face;
Stepping through the foamy edges,
never venturing out so far
that larger waves can threaten their embrace.
One day when I'm much stronger
and my grief is not so new,
I'll swim just like I used to do before.
I'll take pleasure in the memories
and tread water in those places
that we can't share together anymore.
Rainbow Faith Exclusive!
