Every person experiences loss, at some point in their lifetime,

But we all react differently; there’s your way and mine.

Please don’t tell me how I should feel

Or give me a timeframe in which I should heal.

I don’t expect you to understand

I only ask that you hold my hand.

Help me through this process of grief;

Help me to find a source of relief.

Love me through the deepest of sorrows;

Help me to see that there is a tomorrow.

And when the time comes that you need me, for it will,

Know that whatever I can do to help you, I will.
