"Welcome to the group. I lost my partner on February 5th this year, so it's still pretty raw for me too. Reading through your story really touched a chord with me. Like you, I didn't think I would ever find a group like…"
Don't grieve alone; 14,000 members and growing
Since the phlox are dying
and the daisies with their bright bodies
have shattered in the wind,
I go out among these last dancers,
cutting to the ground the withered asters,
the spent stalks of the lilies, the black rose,
and see them as they were in spring,
the time of eagerness and blossoms,
knowing how they will all sleep and return;
and sweep the dry leaves over them
and see the cold earth take them back
as now I know it is taking me
who have walked so long among them,
so amazed, so dazzled by their brightness
I forgot their distance, how of all
the chosen, all the fallen in the garden
I was different: I alone
could not come again to the world.
