“You will not always hurt like this.”
These words are true.
If they do not reach your heart today,
do not reject them:
keep them in your mind.
One morning – not tomorrow perhaps,
but the day after tomorrow,
or the month after next month.
One morning, the dawn will wake you
with the inconceivable surprise:
Your grief will have lost
one small moment in its force.
Be ready for the time
when you can feel for yourself
that these words are true:
You will not always hurt like this.
