Why are you

in the damp cold earth

my darling?

You should be here with me 

beside the fire.

 

Why are you

silent and alone

my darling?

You should be here with me

in my arms.

 

Why are you 

so far away

my darling?

I need you now,

here,

with me.

    Margaret that is exactlly how I feel. Here in California it is getting cold and I wonder if my husband is cold and it might sound crazy but sometimes I want to cover the grave so that it is warm because he did not like feeling cold. Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us. Hugs Linda

    I'm sorry you are having such a hard time right now. It's been over seven months and the pain is still overwhelming sometimes. I'm thinking of you and sending you peace and Love, Carol
