A Grief Poem by Becky Horton Neighbors
Don’t ask me what’s wrong
I can’t tell you
Don’t tell me I need to look for joy
Trust me, I am grasping at every moment of joy I can
Don’t tell me I need to have more faith
Faith is what has gotten me to this point
Don’t tell me I am not praying hard enough
Prayer is what keeps me going
Don’t tell me I should be getting better by now
It just makes me feel like I am doing something wrong
Don’t tell me anything, instead, just walk with me
Hold my hand
Hug my pieces back together
Love me through this until my joy returns
