You portrayed it accurately. Grief is powerful.

[John the Baptist]

Both the words and the picture capture the essence of grief. Every loss is a little death.

[jacob erin-cilberto]

but unlike real death...
resurrection from dark moments does happen.

i really like the sigh being a small death...
it could be just the sigh, or it could be welcoming death itself...
this senryu has enormous dimension...
