Grass
BY CARL SANDBURG

Pile the bodies high at Austerlitz and Waterloo.
Shovel them under and let me work—
I am the grass; I cover all.

And pile them high at Gettysburg
And pile them high at Ypres and Verdun.
Shovel them under and let me work.
Two years, ten years, and passengers ask the conductor:
What place is this?
Where are we now?

I am the grass.
Let me work.

For each of you hurting right now . I send you love, clarity, and peace…. Knowing you are strong and loved 😇

People see me smile
and assume
the pain has softened.

They hear me laugh
and think
I must finally be healing.

They watch me continue living
and believe
the grief must be gone.

But grief does not disappear
just because life keeps moving.

I wake up every day
and do what I have to do.

I answer people.
I carry responsibilities.
I show up.
I survive.

But surviving
is not the same thing
as not hurting.

Some wounds
do not bleed outwardly.

Some heartbreaks
learn how to hide themselves
behind ordinary routines.

The truth is,
I carry this pain everywhere.

Quietly.
Patiently.
Constantly.

There are moments
when I feel almost normal—

and then suddenly
a memory appears
like lightning across the heart.

A voice I miss.
A moment I replay.
A version of life
I can never return to.

And in those moments,
the ache feels brand new again.

But still—
I keep going.

Not because it is easy.

Not because I am unbreakable.

But because life does not pause
for grieving hearts.

So I walk forward
while carrying invisible weight.

I continue loving people
while missing someone deeply.

I keep breathing
through days
that still hurt.

And maybe that is
what real strength looks like.

Not pretending
the pain no longer exists—

but learning how to live
while your heart
still carries sorrow.

Yes, I hurt.

In ways words
will never fully explain.

And yes—
despite all of it—

I keep going anyway. 🤍
