Hope

It is finding our people
the ones who know us best
accept us for all we are
and for all we are not
they become part of our heart family
Some will surprise you by their presence
others, you may have expected
do not show themselves at all
so our family is changing
as we change in swimming through loss
what we must remember
are those who are gone
have also helped to make us who we are today
who we are becoming tomorrow
we are softer, more compassionate
and the love we felt will always
hold strength in our hearts and minds
when we are done
we can look through our pages
and we will continue writing our book of love
