Love is like a strong wave breaking against the rocky shore;
Strong and persistent;
It may forever be leaving but it will always come back strong;
Life and death is like the sun setting and rising:
Everyday it comes up to bring light to Earth like life;
Everyday it goes down to be missed and needed like death;
But to be seen again the next day like the after life;
Grief is like nothing else;
Grief is not only pain but longing too see them one more time;
Grief is a pain so hurtful to our weak hearts;
Grief is so strong it could take your breath away before you begin to cry;
For grief will make you cry;
It will make you wish you could of said good bye;
To say good bye is what we wish for but could we truly be able to say such words when the huge wave crashes onto you;
When you wish the sun would never set for them;
When all you cam see coming is the grief that you never wanted;
All brought by the simple words "good bye";
Could we really handle such a thing;
We would face all of that just so we can say I love you.
