Journey of Grief

My mind is scattered
You say I'll be okay
But it's hard to believe
My grief is the last act of love
For I can't show it to you

Somedays I forget your gone
Until I don't hear the phone ring
Then does it dawn on me
That you are actually gone

When a light goes out
The world gotten so much darker
All I can do is try to survive
Listen to others and hold on

Tell myself that others
Are suffering more than me
Everyone experiences death
Differently than another
Some embrace while others can't accept

I wonder if you can still hear us
To know we're still grieving
Not yet a year but still can't let go
Our objective today
Is to survive your birthday
Knowing we can't celebrate cause your gone

How are you today?
That's what they'll ask
For now all I can say is that
I'm fine
