MEMORIAL


I saw a car like yours today.

Instantly I felt remorse, regret…

And guilt – for not having told you how I felt.

I confess, I miss you yet.



For months I continued to dial the phone;

To tell you of things close to my heart.

And then when memory vividly dawned,

I tried my best not to fall apart.



You were a comfort, my steadfast friend.

I still see your smile, your sparkling eyes.

I miss our talks, the heartfelt banter

Of life’s ups and downs, the how’s and why’s.



I know in my soul you’re with your ‘maker;’

From this life you would depart.

Your leaving left me feeling empty;

You left me with a broken heart.



I miss you still; more than you know.

I wish I could turn back the hands of time.

I would have liked the chance to tell you

That I loved you…one more time.

Words fail me...........must be a "first".

and thank you Luella too.

you are so kind and thoughtful.

Just returned within the hour from the funeral: a two day 300 mile round trip, to learn on the way home that my father-in-law passed away at the age of 90 in his sleep during the night.

My wife is devastated.

We are doing a pretty good job at consoling one another.

If this is providence? it doesn't seem to be very well timed.

It is also said that deaths occur in cycles of "three".

Who else I wonder to share in this misery of loss?

I hate it when love ones die. It kills me a little every time and takes something from me. I should not feel this way I know. I should be happy they are in better happier places...but somehow I take it another way... losing them
in my life and how it makes me feel, hurting/wounded.
