The five stages of grief - The Flowers Still Bloom (Acceptance)

I used to wait beside the door,

Hoping you'd come home once more.

I listened for your footsteps near,

For the voice I longed to hear.

But seasons changed and years went by,

And slowly, I began to realize...

Some goodbyes are not meant to end,

They simply change the way they mend.

Your photograph still rests with care,

Your memories still fill the air.

I still smile at the things you said,

At all the moments we once had.

I used to think that letting go

Meant losing everything I know.

But now I see the love we shared

Was never gone; it remained there.

The flowers bloom beside your stone,

But I no longer feel alone.

The sky still shines, the rivers flow,

And I have learned what I should know.

I carry you in every day,

Not as a wound that won't decay,

But as a light that helped me see

The person I was meant to be.

So I won't ask the stars for more,

Or beg you to return once more.

I'll miss you still, but I can say...

39Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ41p3ip5fpl

I love you.
