Grief Counseling Sessions

On the first and third Wednesday of the month,

On the first and third Wednesday of the month,
I contemplate the markers of my sorrow,
And the miles I have traveled in my grief.

Each milestone indicates my survival,
Acceptance of my new reality,
Without my most steadfast supporter,
I have no one to care for...
except myself.

I talk,
I express my emotions,
I listen to what the others have to say,
We are all on the same the journey;
This is a pilgrimage we must travel separately.

Twice a month we come together,
To support each other in our trek,
And review the mileposts we have passed.
