Journey Of Grief Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Sojourn, lagging behind grief, not wanting to
surpass it right now.

Knowing that I must experience it totally and
fully in order to learn from it and understand
it's purpose in my life.

Nothing else can bring about what is needed to
get through it as tears fall, anger mounts, con-
tinuing to travel through it by myself.

A journey that is intense, difficult and one of
the hardest things in this earthly life to do.
