be there

the wrong thing to say
is
yes, but you are so blessed,
you have
so much to be thankful
for,
don't be sad,
don't cry, when in
fact
it would be better
to listen,
to be there,
and let her be where
she needs
to be in the moment,
accept her pain
and grief and let her
work through
the darkness that she's
in.
