Therapy.

Where Grief And Love Meet. (From my book, "Growing With Grief."

By April Kirby.Published about a year ago • 1 min read
"Growing With Grief."

Grief and love have gone to therapy to talk to my heart, and my heart absorbs every word, every emotion. It is a session that never ends, but my heart hangs on; it never gets tired of the way grief shares the memories of you, or the way love speaks of you as if you created the universe itself.

The hole that has been left in my heart is patched with the love that you left behind, the memories that keep me warm when the world gets cold.

Grief and love have gone to therapy to talk to my heart, but I won't charge them. You can't put a price on the mark you left on me.
