Grief Has Shape
Gentle reflection: This post touches on grief and loss.
There were moments when the weight of grief felt impossible to carry.
This tattoo is a small black heart.
For me, it holds grief, sudden loss, and the marks left behind by what I have had to carry.
Grief can feel invisible.
The world often keeps moving, even when something in you has changed completely.
This tattoo reminds me that loss does not become smaller just because it becomes quieter.
The pain was real.
The love was real.
Both still shape me.
For me, this tattoo is not about wearing sadness.
It is about honouring truth.
It is about giving shape to something that cannot always be explained, but still lives in the body.
This tattoo helps me remember:
Grief may be silent.
But it still has shape.
