PARALYZED
I didn’t see it coming
SUFFOCATING
Trying to process the news
CONFUSED
Grappling with this new norm
CHEATED
We dreamed dreams together
HEARTBROKEN
Because you are unable to respond
REGRETS
Convinced we had more time
SORROW
Needing to say “I love you “again
GUILT
Why now?
LONGING
To hear your voice
THANKFUL
For our time together
GRATEFUL
Of the beautiful memories we shared
BLESSED
To call you my forever friend
CHAMELEON
It determines the situation in which it decides to reveal itself
BOUNDARIES
Enters within the dwelling of your soul ignoring all the do not trespass warnings
DEATH
The uninvited guest
REALITY
I wasn’t ready for it to be you.
RESPONSIBILTY
Live a life pleasing to God
Love as if you’ve never been hurt
Forgive as you have been forgiven
Be ready because this life is not FOREVER
This is beautiful. You made me cry with those words.

I’ve been struggling to write this past month because death was consuming my surroundings. While I understand death is journey we all must take it’s been happening so often and watching my family and friends go through the grieving process caused so many emotions.

So true. It’s hard dealing with loss. I’m learning that it’s no time length on how long we grieve.

This piece is profound and the analogies you used are extremely powerful. Your descriptive choice of words really made me think about life and what are experiencing in this present day & time. Death continues to leave us in a turmoil state of mind and will always be uninvited, we must keep praying for peace and understanding. Thank you so much for the wake up call. Your writing is impeccable.
