Death, grief, and loss are as much a part of life as birth, love, and celebration. Yet when we lose someone we love dearly-a parent, a sibling, a partner-we are stunned, bewildered. In some deep pocket of our hearts or minds, we thought they would live forever.
For Those Who Mourn is a book of poetry that gives voice to those topics that we spend our lives trying to avoid. Every individual expresses grief differently, and each of us must find our way through the forest of mourning that follows.
This book is a companion to those making their journey through the trees. The poems within were written in response to personal experiences, and they paint a story: that we are not alone, and that while we never really "get over" loss, life can be good again if we choose to let it.
