"I babysat this six year old, and I was wearing shorts today..
and my scars were showing, I guess. He poked them and he said, "I know how those got there." I replied, "How?" He looked at me with a straight face and he said, 'I've seen them before. My big sister had them, and she said mean people put them on your body when they weren't nice to you, because when people are mean to you, you end up being mean to yourself. My big sister went away. I don't know where she went. Mommy said she's on a happy vacation somewhere, because she was too sad here. I miss her. Don't go on a vacation, please.'"

Do you long to see my eyes the way I long to see yours ?
Do you long to see my smile, as you are the cause ?
Do you long to hear my "I love you's" and sweet nothings ?
Cause I do...
Your voice is like heaven, a place with no time, no rules, and no goodbyes.. I drift off to my own sweet paradise.. But do you?
Am I your Neverland, your Wendy?
Or am I just decieved.. ?
I know nothing of love, that I can admit.
But I know Me & You sounds just as nice..
.... Do I not affect you the way you do me?
Sometimes though, I don't believe this at all..
Sometimes I do believe you want me.
Yearn for me like I do you..
I just don't understand why,
Why everyone else I've known never did..
Why only you should get to stand out..
But sometimes.....
I may be blind,
Please let me see.. ?

G rief may be a thing we all have in common but it looks different on everyone. It isn’t just death we have to grieve. It’s life, it’s loss, it’s change. And when we wonder why it has to suck so much sometimes, it has to hurt so bad. The thing we gotta try to remember is that it can turn on a dime. That’s how you stay alive when it hurts so much you can’t breathe. That’s how you survive. By remembering that one day somehow, impossibly, it won’t feel this way. It wont hurt this much. Grief comes in it’s own time for everyone in it’s own way. So the best we can do, the best anyone can do, is try for honesty. The really crappy thing, the very worst part of grief is that you can’t control it. The best we can do is try to let ourselves feel it when it comes and let it go when we can. The very worst part is that the minute you think you’re past it, it starts all over again and always, every time, it takes your breath away. There are five stages of grief. They look different on all of us but there is always five. Denial, anger, bargaining, depression, acceptance.
