True love never dies
even when our bodies turn to ash
and our hearts are broken glass
even when the universe unmakes itself
and reassembles into dark waters
even when night and day lose their meaning
and muscles tremble beneath the weight
of too much grief to bear
True love never dies
there is life in the darkness
even at the bottom of the ocean
miles from sunlight
where the surface cracks
the earth's core feeds the growth
True love never dies
because it’s true
the energy that can never be
created or destroyed
reconfigures from the family that held you at your birth
to the spirits who surround you now
and hold you up with their love
buoy your steps through the darkness
so that you can get through this
with the strength and grace
that love taught you.
And you will make it through...
