Writing about a Myth about my subject..that you get over a loved one's death.

Get Over It

You have to get over this
let go
I’m told
but I will never let go
of my son
love only grows
after death

memories sustain
as I adapt
to a new relationship
beyond the grave
incorporate his death
into my life
adapt to the loss
learn to love life again
find joy
establish new traditions
move on
to a new existence

but get over this
not in my lifetime.
