Afloat I find my mind in a sea of infinite dark
My ears edge on a thimble of a sound within an echo of a dream
My senses fade and my mind gathers the last daydreams
of a humanity I have almost forgotten…
As I watch my feet crumble into the edges of eternity
I grip my stomach
Feeling it’s emptiness
The dryness in my throat
And the cold on my skin
I am but an element in all of this...
This.. page of timelessness...in the eyes of God
I feel my back lifting as a million infinitesimal fragments separate
Once held together and united by a name
That..was my name…
And now.. I am nothing more than everything we see…
I will find you again...
When? I do not know.
But I do know now after all the drudgery, hardship, and discontent...
My mind is free and for it...
What I called a “heart” is full.
Might we love again on some eternal plane
For there is no greater comfort than the trust that we go on; that our souls shall meet again.

More Than Just Words
More than sweet words, I cherish the people who are willing to show up for me. The depth of a relationship isn’t determined by how many times we say, “Let’s meet up another day.” Those seemingly warm words often go unfulfilled. Instead, it is the friend you don’t contact often, or even someone who lives far away, who quietly drives over the moment you say, “I’m a little tired lately.”

The steps to losing a child
Step One: Lose a child. Not what anyone wants to happen and nothing you can do to change it, but you can go through steps to becoming happy again. You can go through steps to loving again. You can go through steps to become a new you because after losing a child you will never be the same person you once were.
