Sorrow

TIME may never entirely erase a sorrowBut it will mostly diminish its intensityStanding at the foot of a mountain All you will see is its immensity.

But walking away from the mountain

And viewing it from a distance

It will seem smaller and less overwhelming.

And so it is with a sorrow-

The further and further away you go in time,

The lesser the sorrow will become.
