Grief’s Spell
As I sat brooding at the bottom of a well,
Grief embraced me like a sister
And whispered her soft spell.
There is nothing outside now.
There is nothing beyond love.
There is nothing to fear.
There is nothing to hope for.
There is only love.
There is only peace.
There is only now.
Now is all that is.
Now is all that is.
Now is all that is.
In the beginning,
Before the sun, the moon,
The heavens, the earth,
There was light.
There will be light
Until the end.
Do not shun your tears, my dear,
For they return you to the ocean
Whence you came.
It's all temporary. It's all a gift.
With love, Jennifer
