Emotion welling up inside me
In the midst of grief how can I be happy
I’m not afraid of depths, storms or sharks
But I’m afraid of sinking into sea of missing some
It may take a life long to calm down from what I miss
The gravity of that life-changing loss is so heavy that
no words of comfort can take away the emptiness within
The more I play a hide and seek with emotions,
‘The gone ones will never comeback’
thought just keep on entering pulling my heart out of chest
Moving on is such a word which is not as ease as said
I may not get over this overwhelming waves
But in a way that realization is relieving
‘that I don’t have to get over this’
I get that this is how it is
I understand that I am not gonna get over this
Though the grief is putting on a new face everyday
I have to move on with these flavors of grief in hand
as there are people waiting for my smiles and cuddles
