'Grief is all the love with no place to go.'
The boy was here again.
At the same hospital he used to come by every week. . .
For the past two years.
Again and again, he would come by.
Full of love and hope and faith. . .and fear.
The fear of loss, mostly.
And sometimes it would be grief.
Or sadness too.
But those times were gone.
After all, there was nothing else for him to lose.
Now as he stood in front of it, it seemed more than anything like a prison.
One that had been so miserable that it was the last thing his father had seen.
One that had made sure it would be the only thing that his mother would remember.
One that had kept his sister in for long that she had never left.
Ever.
How sadly familiar this place had become to him.
He had detested it, hated it so much that he had sworn never to come back to the wretched hospital.
Yet he was here again.
