This is all that young people ask for in their grief.. not sympathy and not for someone to try and make it all better. Just someone who empathises with the heart-breaking situation we have been forced into, through no fault or choice of our own. All we want is empathy and a piece of understanding.
Choose to walk alongside us, don’t try to fix our grief.. help us to carry it on days when we are feeling weighed down. Help us to honour and remember our loved one, be the listening ear we so desperately need but may not ask for.
