To Help You Know, Your Loved Ones Are There

Grief, I’ve learned, is really just love. It’s all the love you want to give, but cannot. All that unspent love gathers up in the corners of your eyes, the lump in your throat, and in that hollow part of your chest. Grief is just love with no place to go

there’s a misconception that grief only happens when we lose people. this is not true. we can grieve circumstances, relationships, missed opportunities. in fact, sometimes when you find yourself plagued with waves of emotion from sadness to melancholy you may be grieving yourself. the version of yourself that you might have been if things had been different, or if only you had said something, or if someone had stood up for you.

No matter where you are or who you’re with I will always, truly, completely love you…

When I tell you I’m fine and not too worry about me, I’m lying. I’m not fine, but I don’t want you too worry. I just want you to let me speak my mind and then wrap your arms around me tight and kiss my cheek and tell me I’ll be alright. That you won’t leave me when I need you the most
