Healing and Death
We must find ways to grieve. For without grief there can be no comfort. Often we must force ourselves to reach into our subconscious to uncover our true feelings. Only when we have allowed ourselves to feel all of our pain can we begin to face our loss and slowly begin to heal.

Poetry about Death
Poetry is a great way to get in touch with our sadness.  Death poetry has been established in many cultures and religious practices.  In Judaism the Mourners Kadish is a beautifully recited prayer for the dead that is exquisitely composed with rhythm and rhyming in Hebrew.  The Requiem Mass of the Catholic Church is a monophonic liturgical chant for the dead that has been established for centuries.  These are just a two examples of Death Poetry that help aid those in mourning.  To sit down with paper and pen, to delve into our subconscious, to expose our true feelings, to turn feelings into words, to shape words into sentences, sentences into complete thoughts into death poetry is an ancient practice to better understand the loss of a loved one.
