On the Other Side of Grief

Grief enveloped me

threatening to eclipse all light
there in the darkness
without eyes to see
my heart, aching,
broke open
crashing into a
thousand shimmering
and flawless diamonds
then I saw without eyes
heard without ears
knew without words
my heart was not broken at all
it was full, and open
The eclipse past
the light returned
my heart understood
on the other side of grief is Love
