In the dark depths of sorrow's embrace


We find ourselves lost in a sea of pain


Unable to escape the clutches of grief


It's a heavy burden that weighs us down


Threatening to drown us in its endless waves



But there is a way to heal this ache


To mend the broken pieces of our hearts


It's a simple yet profound truth


The only way to heal grief: Feel it



Embrace the tears that flow like rivers


Let them cleanse your wounded soul


Don't push them away or hide them


For they are the gateway to healing



Allow yourself to feel the rawness


Of your emotions, the anger, the sadness


Don't bottle them up, let them out


For they are the keys to your release



Don't numb yourself with distractions


Or bury your pain under a facade


Face it head on, with courage and grace


And watch as it slowly begins to fade



It may seem easier to avoid the pain


To pretend that everything is fine


But the longer you suppress your grief


The harder it will be to find peace



So let yourself grieve, let yourself mourn


For it is only through feeling the pain


That you can begin to heal and grow


Stronger than you ever thought possible



It won't be easy, it won't be quick


But with time and patience, you will find


That the wounds will start to heal


And the sun will shine once more



So don't be afraid to feel your grief


To embrace it as a part of your journey


For it is through the darkness


That we find the light at the end of the tunnel



And remember, you are not alone


There are others who have walked this path


Who understand the depth of your pain


And will stand by you through it all



So let your tears fall, let your heart break


For in the brokenness, there is beauty


And in the pain, there is healing


The only way to heal grief: Feel it.
