Grief by Amy McGarrah


Waiting in the shadows is one who is still grieving the loss of her mother.
One who will also one day grieve the loss of her father.
One who sits alone and wonders if she will indeed spend the rest of her life alone,
Without knowing “real” love.
The definition of real true love is accepting someone for who they are,
not what they drive or how they live.
Someone who has been alone for most of her life because of her disability has found someone who loves her for who she truly is,
and you won’t accept him, because you want to see him for what he was,
not what he has become.
Is he perfect? No, not by any means, but this world would be a pretty boring place if everyone was perfect.
We both try hard to be perfect,
but we always come up short because we both know that we’re not perfect.
We’re human.

  1. Accepting each other, flaws and all, is our greatest challenge, isn't it, Amy?
