If death is nothing at all,
We will be enjoying summer and fall;
We shall talk and laugh as we have always done,
Instead of waiting for my time to come.

They say that time will heal all wounds.
I know that could be true.
It's the lonely in-between times
That I start missing you.
My husband who was a professional boxer developed dementia at age 57 from undetected brain injuries. He was admitted to Bendale Acres Long Term Care at the age of 67. It was so lonely without...
Time heals all wounds they say,
but I have one that never goes away.
The loss of you has left a spot

Mornings in the summer
Autumn's evening mist
Snowflakes on my window
Solitude exists
Alone in my darkness I still see your face,
sometimes your presence and your warm embrace.

My Dearest Darling,
I am not as strong as I thought I was.
Since you have been gone,
I was engaged in my early 20s. It was a deep love that just couldn't be. Life happened, and I married a different wonderful man, who just happened to have been childhood friends with my ex....

But when your casket closes,
Where should my love then go?
I left a simple rose today.
I laid it down upon your grave.
Then memories came rushing - from the past,
of our lives together; we said it would last.
That morning we woke up,
Like any other day.
We brushed our teeth, I brushed my hair.
Nothing new to say.
