Grief is not a single tear,
It lingers softly, year by year. 🌾
It’s love that never found its end,
A wound that time cannot amend.

It’s knowing dreams must now be stilled,
That empty spaces won’t be filled.
The laughter shared, the plans once bright,
Now fade beneath the quiet night. 🌙

Acceptance comes, but slow and shy,
A fragile truth beneath the sky.
It teaches hearts to live anew,
While carrying what once was you. ❤️

Not all is lost, not all is gone,
For love still lingers, moving on.
Yet part of me will always see,
The ache of what will never be.
