What to do with the ache

What to do with the ache
what to do with the loss
what to do with the absence
what to do with the gone
what to do with the abject absolute lack

what to do for the gone
how to reach the departed
to hold them close and let them go

How to remain and find meaning
when who made meaning
has died how to live in
a now without the loving ground
that held you up without your gravity
