WIDOWS AND WIDOWERS OF FAITH Community Group
A place where people of faith may freely discuss issues of grief from a faith based perspective.
I heard in the bebinning that this isn't something you get over but learn to live with. I completley understand what that truly means now. And I was thinking about our life together comiing to work tonight. And this hit me without anythought, it just starting flowing.
I brought her flowers just because it was Tuesday and it made her smile.
Brought home little trinkets because they brought back a memory and made her smile.
Shared house work to not over burden her, because I loved her.
Gave her back and foot rubs because it brought her pleasure.
Held her in my arms tightly to stop the trimbling and give her my strength.
Kissed her lips tenderly because she was a lady.
Held her hand to let her know I was always there.
Looked at her with eyes that saw her precious in my sight.
Held her in the dark to protect her against a cruel harsh world until she fell asleep in my arms.
Shared unselfish intimacy because we were in love with the other.
Woke in the morning first to prove to myslef it was all real and watch her sleep.
Protected her heart with my life becaue she trusted me with it.
Unconditionally devoted and loved her because she deserved it.
Was a better man and am now because of her.
Never was a pretty boy, but she made me a beautiful man.
And because she is better off with her Father in paradise I have found peace and acceptance.
And I have let her go because I loved her.
And I will move on with this life because she loved me.
So until that day we are reunited I will walk this path and keep my faith.
Good bye Lyn, I love you.

Just thought I would join this group now that I am a widower. My wife passed away May 28th. She was "The Wind Beneath My Wings". When I met her, I was a drunken, dope smoking, fighting, hell raising biker. She told me if I could get rid of the inner storm within me, that I could be a blessing to people. God placed her in my path to stop me. I have been drug and alcohol free now for 53...
(((Warm hugs to you)))
