Learning How to Deal

by Jacinta   Nov 21, 2005


They say when you lose someone,
To take as much time to grieve.
Some say to get over with it
And get on with your life.
Those people just don't understand how close you may have been with that person.
Then you have to learn how to grieve...
They say do what you have to;
Cry,
Eat ice cream,
Sleep...
I tried that and you know what?
It don't work..
Crying is supposed to mak you feel better,
Eating is supposed to make you numb,
Sleeping is supposed to make you forget...
What do you do when none of that works?
You can't sleep because all you do is dream about what happened,
What could've been;
What chould have been.
Eating makes me sick,
I just don't want to do it.
Crying hurts...
How are you supposed to learn how to deal with it
When you're every waking moment was spent thinking of them before;
Living for that person.
How am I supposed to learn how to live without the person who means so much to me?

    Thats the thing... you can't learn to live w/o someone you are so used to being around. Defiantely when it hurts inside the way said it does. Some things in life are impossible to forget for a reason... hopefully that reason will come to light sooner or later. If you wanna talk you know where to find me Cinna.

    Your friend,
    Keon...

    Very valid questions hun, I wish I could answer them for you, but I would be heartless to try. There are some pains that won't ever go away, sometimes you have to learn to live with them, not expecting yourself to be the person you were before, but instead working with the new you that you have become. Losing people is hard, and there are no words or actions or anything to make it better. I suppose it depends on what you believe. In my religion I believe in an after life, so the comfort I found when losing those I loved (I have) was to try to live a good life so I can see them again when I die. I don't know if that helps any. I will pray for you swetie. Huggles.
