Grief between the lines

Grief is a unique journey, one which can feel so lonely. Whilst there are no words to truly ease the pain, poetry can be the clue to the fact that someone, somewhere has experienced similar emotions and feelings although never truly the same. Words can help the reader to identify with the words of others and in turn feel that little bit less alone. Some of the words written and expressed through poetry are those that feel too difficult to talk about during the grief journey. Reading words on paper or hearing them read aloud is a form of expression, a language, that only those grieving may truly ever know.
