"Sorrow you can hold, however desolating, if nobody speaks to you. If they speak, you break down." - Bede Jarrett
dancing around the edges of grief
flash frozen and hidden long ago
living memories safely stored in blocks
"It's so curious: one can resist tears and 'behave' very well in the hardest hours of grief. But then someone makes you a friendly sign behind a window, or one notices that a flower that was in bud only yesterday has suddenly blossomed, or a letter slips from a drawer... and everything collapses." - Colette
Pondering, still just pondering . . .
