Some days I feel like I have come so far, done so well
Since a year ago, when my world literally ended for me.
But then, I get a heavy feeling in my gut and the bells of doom kell
Their heavy tolls, awakening me to the emptiness within my heart.
I look around and watch sadness creep in like waves
Through my soul, my mind, my body, showing me the grave
That I do not have the courage to visit.
How do I keep the feeling of accomplishment and resist
The bells that ring in tandem to random thoughts of loss?
There is no way to shine from heaven the unknown gloss … of forever, together.

There is no timetable for grieving. I lift you up in prayer, my dear friend.

I know. At first I counted the days, then the weeks, then the months. Now back to one as we reach a year today.

I remember when my brother passed away a few years ago and when I come across something that I know he would have enjoyed, there is a huge sigh from missing him. God will never leave or forsake you, my dear.

Robbie, I so wish I were stronger; so wish I were further a long. Some hurts never go away, but they’re not supposed to. I just wish I could predict when these slumps are going to knock me down again. Thank you so much for all you done to help me this past year. You are a blessed friend.
