A Poem for My Sister, Gone Too Soon
The world feels muted, colors dimmed and gray, Since you departed, on that fateful day. A silent echo where your laughter rang, A vacant space where your bright spirit sang.
Your memory lingers, a gentle breeze, Whispering stories through the rustling trees. I see your face in sunbeams, soft and warm, A fleeting glimpse, shielding me from the storm.
We shared our secrets, dreams both big and small, A bond unbreakable, transcending all. Through childhood games and teenage angst we'd roam, Now I walk alone, far from our childhood home.
How do I cope with the loss of my sister?
Grief's a journey, winding, long, and steep, With moments of despair, and moments of sleep. Allow yourself to weep, to grieve, to mourn, For your lost sister, on this sorrowful morn. Find solace in memories, in shared laughter's sound, In love that lingers, ever profound. Lean on loved ones, let them hold you near, Knowing that your sorrow, they will always hear.
Seek professional help, if the grief feels too vast, A guiding hand to navigate the past. Remember the joy, the love, the life you shared, Let those memories be a beacon, unafraid.
What are the stages of grief after losing a sibling?
There's no prescribed order, no timetable to keep, Grief's a personal journey, secrets it will keep. Denial, anger, bargaining, depression, acceptance, These are stages, often a tangled, messy acceptance. Allow yourself to feel, to navigate the maze, With patience and kindness, throughout your life's days.
How can I honor my sister's memory?
Plant a tree, a flower, a symbol of her grace, A living tribute in a cherished place. Share her stories, keep her memory alive, Let her spirit's light forever thrive. Support a cause she championed, with all your might, A legacy of kindness, shining ever bright.
Though the pain remains, a constant, aching plea, Know that your sister's love will always be, A comforting presence, a guiding light so true, Forever in your heart, forever loving you.
