Shadows of Remembrance

A Journey Through Loss and Grief

By Hanna NelsonPublished 3 years ago • 2 min read

In the depths of sorrow, where shadows reside,

A journey unfolds, where emotions collide.

Loss leaves its mark, a wound deep and sore,

Grief's relentless grip, we cannot ignore.

Through tear-stained eyes, I search for solace,

In the echoes of memories, a tender embrace.

In the depths of loss, I navigate the pain,

Seeking solace as tears fall like rain.

Each passing moment, a reminder profound,

Of the love that once bloomed, now bound.

In the hollow of my heart, an ache remains,

Whispering the echoes of love's sweet refrains.

Grief's heavy burden, it weighs on my soul,

Tears etch the lines of a story untold.

Yet in the depths of sorrow's relentless tide,

Strength emerges, a resilient guide.

I cherish the memories that will never fade,

The laughter we shared, the love that we made.

In the tapestry of loss, a bittersweet song,

A testament to a love that will forever belong.

Grief intertwines with love in a delicate dance,

Unraveling emotions, leaving no second chance.

Yet through the pain, resilience takes flight,

Finding strength in the darkest of night.

In remembrance, I find solace and release,

Honoring the love that will never cease.

Though loss has its grip, I will rise above,

For within me resides the power of love.

Through the shadows of grief, a path emerges,

Leading to healing as my heart converges.

I hold onto hope, a guiding light in despair,

Embracing the love that will always be there.

In the tapestry of loss, we find connection,

A shared experience, a compassionate reflection.

For in our grief, we are never alone,

Surrounded by love that forever has grown.

So let us honor the ones we hold dear,

Embrace the pain and shed each tear.

For in loss and grief, we find our way,

Through the shadows of remembrance, we will stay.

Shadows may linger, but love remains,

A beacon of light amidst life's strains.

In the tapestry of loss, we learn to cope,

And find strength in the power of hope.

In the depths of sorrow, resilience unfurls,

As we navigate grief's tumultuous swirls.

Through loss and grief, we find our release,

Embracing the shadows, finding inner peace.

Shadows of remembrance, we carry with grace,

Honoring the ones we've lost, in every embrace.

For in the journey of loss and grief we embark,

We discover that love's light will forever spark.
