Dealing with normal when nothing is

The pain comes in waves as a sudden hollowness in the middle of my body as I try to look normal in Zoom meetings for work. I suddenly become present to all the loss and grief. I take a deep breath as my body processes the feelings and try to pay attention to the meeting. I am distracted. I can't remember what day it is. I forget what I'm doing.
