[Incurable] Grief

[Incurable] Grief - Krisana Manglani (Kent Place School, Ninth Grade)

We cannot understand the incurable. The grief we feel, inevitable loss. 

The mysteries of which are 

Only solved 

Through experience. Yet, 

How to describe these feelings? 

A whisper of a voice, the echo of a fading 

[heart][drum] beat silenced [not] too long ago. 

Fate, the untameable cause of the 

Incurable. 

The force we are never truly prepared to face, 

No matter how much we steel ourselves. 

grief / grēf / 

“The anguish experienced after significant loss 

Or rather, 

“The irreparable hole in the soul.” 

Too unstable, 

Too overwhelming, 

Too terrifying, 

Too dangerous, 

Too much, 

To be anything more than 

[incurable].
