Grief and Loss Poetry

Create a poem about grieving [TYPE OF LOSS: person/relationship/place/time/identity]. The poem should: honor the specific texture of this loss, avoid platitudes and easy comfort, include physical/bodily manifestations of grief, allow for contradictions (relief with sorrow, anger with love), not force resolution or meaning, find images adequate to inexpressible pain, offer companionship in grief without fixing it. Write 25-40 lines that sit with loss rather than transcending it.
