Take this hurting and write.
Write a poem for every detail.
Write a poem for every emotion, every memory, every thought.
Write lines and stanzas and poems.
Write poems and poems;
write enough poems to fill books.
Then, when this is over-
because it really does always end eventually-
it will feel like it was worth it.
That it was okay that you went through this.
That there was a reason for this trial
and maybe the reason was words.
