I’m so sorry for your loss, Rea. Thank you for sharing this poignant, soul-stirring poem—and for opening your heart in such a vulnerable way. It brought tears to my eyes.

I, too, have lost someone to suicide. And in reading this, I felt a familiar ache—and also a quiet sense of comfort, as if someone had put words to the sorrow we often carry in silence.

With love and care,
