“I’ve come to terms with you,” I said, looking away.
It had taken me a while to do so. Grief said nothing, and watched me walk ahead.
A year after that, I saw Anna’s favorite movie again, the one we would always watch together.
“I never really left,” said Grief, slipping silently down my cheeks.

Poetry & writing are to me, a breath of fresh air in a life that is sometimes covered by the smoke of sorrow or self doubt. They also become the sweets I share to celebrate when life offers me a reason to. But most of all, they are to me, my life. For each word I write is a piece of my heart, a thought that just had to find its way into the world.
