The Light Within Loss
If you dare to enter
the heart of your loss,
it will not destroy you,
it will illuminate you.
Grief is not the end of love
but its final, raw expression.
When you stop turning away
and let the pain
move through you,
something tender awakens.
The depth that holds your sorrow
also holds your light.
Healing is not escape,
it is surrender,
a soft unfolding
into compassion,
into transformation,
into grace,
into love.
