i thought i was ready
but i’m not
to share more about the reality
of having now lost both parents
to start unraveling some of
grief’s sticking points
i thought i was ready
but i’m not
to connect the dots to a new life
without my solid foundation
to begin making sense out of
this overwhelming emptiness
i thought i was ready
but i’m not
not yet focused or coherent enough
to lace the pieces together
forming one cohesive creation
filling in the many spaces and gaps
emerges as my personal therapy
in the coming months
i thought i was ready
but i’m not
heading into autumn with a
surprisingly different mission
than anticipated
the task of disentangling
my grief story
