londiwe buthelezi - grief

It rips through your body.
Grazing, raking, shaving away all the
protective layers you put up all those years before.
layers you used to cover all the pain
you couldn't possibly show to others.
Grief exposes you.
shows everyone what you really are like inside.
raw and helpless...
