“Grief ends up giving you the two best things:
softness and illumination.”

the pebble rests
gently in my palm
smooth and worn by its journey down
from the heights to this low place
no longer sharp
and wounding
but comfortable and comforting
polished by affliction
its inner beauty shining from
its depths
so too
the worn and beautiful
ones
