Just Grieve is a broken heart in words. What do you say to someone who is grieving? How do you put to words the difficult combination of emotions that come along with loss? The book is short in length but deep in its ability to offer empathy during incredibly difficult times. It is hopeful, loving, dark, empty, and inspiring. In a period when one might feel utterly alone, Just Grieve is there as a companion. These poems offer space for a person to be and feel exactly as they are. Written over a ten-year period, Just Grieve is an extended hand and heart wide open. There is one simple message from the author; your pain is all of our pain. Your loss is everyone’s loss. You are not alone. You are understood and loved. You sit with yourself for as long as needed, but know that you are seen and felt as deeply as the ocean floors, and held as high as the stars above.
