Grief

I can not simply get over it
I can not simply say it does not fit
It's not something I can merely go around 
Or dig a deep tunnel underground 
It is not something I can build a bridge over
Or wish it away with a four leaf clover 
It is not something I can avoid forever
It is not something I can forget, not ever
It brings about so much fear
It takes me so far away from here
It floods me with so many tears
It overcomes me in sorrow as it nears
I can not just pass it by
It will never just simply die
It will be there forevermore
I've no chance but to pass through the door
There's only one thing for me to do 
It is something I must walk through 
I must cry the tears and feel the pain
I must scream and yell and go insane
It is grief, and there is only one thing to do
I must jump in and pass through 
When I reach the other side one day
My feet will hurt, and my shoes will be worn away
And even though at times I may take a dive
I know this is something I will survive
