Most people have a very clear idea of hell but a very vague concept of heaven. We have no trouble thinking about something that terrifies us, but we find it almost impossible to imagine something that will give us true happiness and peace.
Is heaven some boring place you go to after your life on earth is over? Is it a generic thing that could hardly speak to your heart’s innermost desires?
But how could it be paradise if it could not even match the happiness we find in our earthly lives?
Look at the world we’re living in. Isn’t there such an abundance of light, beauty and wonder? How much more then the one that’s meant to be eternal and beyond all thoughts and imaginings!

“Sometimes grief is like a wave, and healing is like a butterfly.”
It is not because things die, That they are beautiful. Things are beautiful Because somehow, A part of them lives on And never dies…
When we are mourning the death of a loved one, we experience a profound sadness that nobody else seems to understand. Many times, all we need is just a warm hand to hold us and a friend who will be there for us as we face the most difficult times we’ve ever had.
Let these grief poems be like a friend to you, revealing the deepest hurts in your heart as you strive to find some comfort in your hour of grief.
Here are some of the grief poems included in the book:
Not for One Moment
Not for one lonely moment,
Not for one troubled day,
Not for one passing hour,
Had I failed to remember you.
Yes, you who are mine;
You, who would always be the one.
And not for one passing moment,
Could you ever be truly gone.
For you are right here where I stand —
Here, where we walked beneath the stars,
And not for one waking moment,
Could you be ripped from my heart.
‘Cause right from the start,
Right from that precious moment,
When your eyes met mine,
O, how I cried.
How I could have died,
Had I not learned ,
To keep you in my soul,
For I am yours and yours alone.
You are my home,
And wherever I may go,
There will never be a moment,
When I couldn’t come back to you.
They say time heals
They say it makes you forget.
They say I’d move on,
And that I shouldn’t fret.
Perhaps I’d find another love,
Perhaps my heart shall beat again,
When I have learned to let you go,
And I have met another friend.
Well I don’t know about letting go,
And maybe only time will tell,
But I know that I shall love you so,
Though my heart begins to mend.
Perhaps I’d learn to hope,
Perhaps someone else would love me true
Perhaps I’d learn to live again,
But there won’t be another you.
I Won’t Be Bringing Flowers
I won’t be bringing flowers,
They cannot reach you where you are.
Ashes would return into ashes,
But the ashes won’t bring you home.
I won’t be bringing flowers
They’d wither away and die.
I’d bring instead some butterflies
To help you reach the skies.
I Thought the Stars Wouldn’t Shine
I thought the stars wouldn’t shine
When you are gone
I thought that all the light
Would vanish from the sun.
Why must the sky be a perfect blue
When I could no longer spend the day with you?
Why must the moon cast a romantic glow
When my love has flown to where I cannot go?
But the moon and the stars continued to shine
And the sun never failed to give its warmth
Who am I to whine and complain
When after the storm, some good things still remain?
Let them stay forever then,
Let their presence comfort me,
Perhaps somewhere my love is still there,
In some secret place where beautiful things run free.
The pain is too much…
Too much for this little heart.
I wish I had a bigger heart
So I could cry more for you,
So I could love you
Even when all that’s left
Is this pain in me.
This pain that is too much…
Too much for a weak person to bear
Without breaking
And falling apart.
How I wish to be stronger
So I could bleed without fainting,
And in bleeding
I may cry,
With all the love I have in me.
Sometimes There Is a Sadness
Sometimes there is a sadness in me,
A sadness that no one understands.
‘Cause though it seems so bitter,
I welcome it with open arms.
Sometimes there is a sadness,
That even tears cannot speak.
My heart alone knows the pain,
A pain so sharp and deep.
Why then do I hold on?
Why do I follow where it leads?
Ah, perhaps because it draws me closer,
It carries me where it is sweet.
When It’s Night
When life just feels so dreary,
and the world, so dark and sad…
And the load you bear is so heavy,
and you’re just bruised and broken bad.
Take heart and rest awhile,
and if your heart is broken, you can cry.
No one ever said we must always smile,
no one ever said there’d be no night.
For there are times of joy and times of trouble,
there are days when you just feel so tired.
You have tried and tried and tried,
you did all you could with all your might!
Take heart and give yourself some time,
give yourself some space to hide.
No one ever said we must always toil,
no one ever said we must always shine.
When I see you again, after a long long while,
When I see you again, and I behold your smile,
I’d look in your eyes as though we’ve only met,
I’d look at you as though no tears were ever shed.
When I see you again, after all the sleepless nights,
When I see you again, after darkness flees the sky,
I’d take your hand and hold you real tight,
I’d make you feel that this time, things would turn out right.
When I see you again, after fearing you’re forever gone,
When I see you again, after missing you so much,
I’d give you my heart so you’d never be alone,
I’d make certain that this time, I won’t ever let you go.
Poetry can be a source of healing, especially for those who weep. When we are grieving, it helps to know that there is a kind of poetry that understands the heart, a heart broken with sorrow and yet persisting in love.
“There is something about the loss of a loved one that seems to leave an empty space in our hearts. This space could often feel painful, as though thorns have instead grown within us, reminding us of all that we have lost. But despite the pain, there is sweetness, too. Despite our grief, there is also love. May these poems help you to remember the things that you have been given, the things that would always remain. Waves of sorrow may come and go, but even in our grief, the joy that our loved ones have given us would always be there. Through love, even our deepest hurts can turn into lasting strength and hope.”

The Inspirer writes with burning letters. You cannot read the Inspirer’s writings without feeling its warmth. You will feel something within your heart is being lit, enlightened, urged to pass on the Light it has found.
The Inspirer’s letters have life in itself. They speak long after they have been uttered. Generations feed upon each word and the soul is nourished unto eternity.
“The Inspirer’s Wisdom” is a collection of stories and myths gathered from the life of the Inspirer. It is an offspring of my novel The Inspirer’s Jewels, a story of awakening and of finding one’s power from the place of our greatest weaknesses and suffering. This is that kind of power that turns our darkness into light, our battle scars into eternal jewels of beauty and joy!
Grief, particularly the sadness of grieving the loss of a loved one, is one of the darkest hours we could ever experience. It is something that goes beyond our comprehension, something so devastating it destroys the most beautiful dreams we have ever had with and for our beloved ones.
How does one go on after such a loss? How does one survive the empty vacuum our loved ones have left behind? Is there any valid meaning we could possibly attribute to death?
Let this book be like a comforting friend for you, someone who knows just how painful it is to experience what you’re going through. I may not be physically with you, but through this book’s comforting words, may you be hugged with a warmth that reaches your heart, soothing the aches within, whispering words of hope and of a renewed sense of connection with that part of you that seemed to have been suddenly lost.
