That on days the sun feels the sweetest, you will ache to have them there beside you to feel it’s warmth.
You never completely move on from a loss, you simply learn to step forward.
What I wouldn’t give to have even just 5 minutes with you now. To hear your voice and feel your touch.
As my life blossoms around me, I yearn to ask your advice and hear your praise.
There is not a doubt in my mind of your pride, but some days I ache for the tangible, some days you feel so far.
As the waves of grief ebb and flow, I open myself up to feel it, I allow myself to be vulnerable, to succumb to its flow.
For I know these waves well now, they will not drown me.
So today as grief calls me to feel it rawly, I will share my vulnerability with you all, there is deep beauty in honesty, there is healing found within the shadows.
***
I am miss you today. I am missing you everyday, but today the distance seems insurmountable, today I ache for your arms.
They don’t tell you that grief hits harder on the days you thrive.
