We thought it was breaking up, and not getting the love we needed was the worst nightmare we could have. But losing them is a nightmare that we don't want to become a reality yet can't control. And now things are happening. We don't know where to take a turn or seek a hiding place for this reality. We want to run to somewhere no one is going to find us.
We want to be in that place and think for a while. We want to process and understand that what happened is no longer the things in our heads. It becomes the reality that we are never prepared to happen—a safe place to cry and scream.
We don't know where that place is. So we travel along the roads of darkness, trying to look for a light to shine on us to reach the end of it. But we are lost in a place called grief. We walk sideways, thinking there would be a path that will lead us somewhere peaceful and quiet. Yet, we lose again. It was the darkness that welcomed us still.
Going back was not the option. So we keep running and walking away from what is happening. Then we came across a glimpse of light, we hoped it would be the way we wanted and dreamed of, but as we walked the track, the light went out slowly as we neared it.
The more we run, there is no way open for us to run more. So we pause and decide what other things we can do to escape what is happening. But as soon as we think about it we are already consumed with frustration and desperation to get out. So we are trying to look for a place to mourn and be silent.
As we are trying to escape all the wounds because of their passing, the more we are restless and overthinking. From that slight pause, we run again, but we go back from the reality that we are trying to ignore this time. It is hard to see what is happening, but we realize that we need to see it to surpass it.
We can't walk through life and run when we no longer can endure it. We need to face it. That is the only thing that will help us see the light and new path to walk on. The only way to get out from the darkness we are in right now and bridge that will help us connect to acceptance and understanding.
We need to face reality.
There is no need to run and hide what demands to be felt. We don't need to deny ourselves to express what we think. The more we are hiding and denying it, the more it hurts, and it will create different thoughts in our minds that will lead to depression and anxiety.
We need to think for ourselves. There is a time for feeling the pain, and there is a time for healing. We don't need to be complicated by ourselves. Facing reality is feeling the pain and accepting the truth of what happened.
Understand your pace.
There is no need to rush on the things that need time. Instead, we command our hearts to set a date to stop hurting and sadness. We can control the intensity of our emotions, but it does not mean that it will prevent us from getting hurt and feeling missing. We need to understand that there is a time for everything. We don't need to rush the process.
Since we all have different paces in life, we don't need to copy what others are doing because they do not apply to us. That is why we need to know ourselves and understand the pace in life. We need to see everything. That is why we need to slow down if necessary.

Heal
It is hard to heal from the wounds their loss created in our hearts to heal that quickly. It takes so much time and understanding before we can get back on track. We need to understand that healing is not an automatic machine that will give you the healing you need in an hour.
It takes time, months, and sometimes years before we can recover from what we lost. We need to let our hearts heal before we can let another thing come to mind and forget that we are healing.
