In English, we say: “I miss you.”
But in poetry, we say:
“I trace the shape of your absence in the spaces where your laughter used to linger,
and let the echoes of you fill the hollow hours.” - Larsen Langston #grief #widow #thegriefspot #thegspot #griefisadirtyword #normalizegrief #poetry #writer

Grief. It changes you. It changes you physically, there's a numbed sadness in your eyes. #Grief spiritually strips your soul away. Grief. It changes you forever. It is so powerful that it can divide time. Your life is divided into the before and after. #thegriefspot #thegspot #griefisadirtyword

In English, we say: “You hurt me.”
But in poetry, we say:

and now every breath feels like an apology I shouldn’t owe.” -Larson Langston #grief #widow #thegriefspot #thegspot #griefisadirtyword #normalizegrief #poetry #writer #author

You don't just grieve the loss of your loved one. You grieve the future you had imagined together, the memories you could have made, and an entire life that should have been. #grief #widow #thegriefspot #thegspot #griefisadirtyword #normalizegrief

There's a deep silence that comes with losing a spouse. It doesn’t matter if you’re standing in the middle of a crowded room. In a room full of noise you will only notice the silence. The silence of your loss is deafening. #grief #widow #thegriefspot #thegspot #griefisadirtyword #normalizegrief

In English, we say: “I don’t know how to let go.”
But in poetry, we say:

heavy, unyielding, and carved with the sharp edges of what once was.” - Larsen Langston #grief #widow #thegriefspot #thegspot #griefisadirtyword #normalizegrief #poetry #writer #author

Grief blurs your memory and clouds your future. It blinds you, making you unsure of which path is best for you. #Grief suffocates you, leaving you breathless and wanting to give up. It seeps into your pores. #widow #thegriefspot #thegspot #griefisadirtyword

Widowhood is complex and layered in a way that no one could have prepared me for.
Because when our partner dies, we aren't only grieving them... we also grieve the version of us that existed when they were here. #thegriefspot #thegspot #griefisadirtyword #grief #widow

It is possible to love what was and love what is.
It is possible to build a new life while honoring an old.
Grief makes your heart bigger, deeper and stronger for what comes next if you let it. #grief #widow #thegriefspot #thegspot #griefisadirtyword #normalizegrief

Losing a spouse is the equivalent of a massive ball of soot exploding in your life. The dust gets on everything...you, your child, your family, your friends, your finances, your photos, your home-EVERYTHING. #grief #widow #thegriefspot #thegspot #griefisadirtyword

In English, we say: “I feel lost.”
But in poetry, we say:
“The compass of my heart spins wildly now,
its needle drawn to places it can no longer call home.”
