Better and Better

"we come into people's lives when they have experienced something profound - and sad. And they've lost somebody, you know? And um, the circumstances, they're always different. But that's the same. And we help. In some small way we, um, we help."
-Rose Lorkowski

Interesting how just a little bit of hope, can go so far.

Life opens up in front you,
Your mind starts to empty out.
You've stopped crying now at night.
Some days are better than others,
but there is a light at the end of the tunnel.

You see the past, know how it hurt.
Memories are that of recent pains,
pains that didn't scar you, but helped you to grow.

New friends arise, and you realize that you are working through it all.
Memories will last a life time,
even when you had thought it would have been more.

I'm doing good.
It's not easy, but I feel good...
