Breathe

Child, breathe deeply again

Time does not heal.

It is how you use time

To grieve

That helps you heal.

Dear, God

Grief intrudes upon

My daily existence.

Robbing me of my breath.

I have none left.

Child, breathe deeply again

Gradually it will fade

Allowing you to accept

The finality of death

And, allowing you to

Attend to life’s changes.
