Comfort

We treat grief like an injury
as if six weeks could heal us
instead we need
that long convalescence
the comfort of soft things
the warmth of home
the routines that bring us calm
grief does not know an end
because love does not die
so we wrap ourselves in comfort
creating our own soft landing
as the world continues with its hustle – Caroline A. Slee
