Dealing with the grief of my aunty the last 2 weeks has been complicated. As I get older, it feels that with each loved one who passes, the light shines a little duller and I am reminded of the other amazing people who are no longer here with me, so in essence the grief grows. It is bitter sweet; as their bodies go, the memories of them grow. The laughs we had, the shared moments, the adventures etc but it still hurts. This poem and post have helped me. So I wanted to share them with anyone else dealing with grief.
