Expiration date on grieving...

 

 

In grieving

one has no control over

what the mind needs to deal with

and what the heart needs to heal.

In the past several months

I have come to learn that grief

has a time table 

of its very own.

I am sometimes very weak

in the battle of faith,

but sometimes...

I am very strong.

A strange new way to live.

 But I'm trying...

 

Is there a shelf life

or expiration date on mouring

the loss of a loved one?

I don't believe there is.
