Simply add Light

Loss is nothing
focus on gain
elevate thinking 
alleviate pain

Space sadly vacant
agonized mind
replace with wonder
 fear far behind

Darkness so nourished
by failure to grow
 Courage spawns light
Action adds glow

Motion and movement
energized pace
filling with freshness
hard empty space

Never forgotten
as pain should be
old wounds fly
on soft wings set free

Accelerate now
glimmer flash burst
depression vacated
darkness dispersed

Memories linger
hurtful refrain
let brilliant light action
bring peace once again

Loss is so hard. We feel so much in our soul that it lingers heavy, but memories help to lighten those burdens. And maybe give us some peace. Sending love.

Even many, many years after the loss of a dear friend or beloved family member, the tears still flow. So I tell myself:

" 'Tis better to have loved and lost
Than never to have loved at all."

You have my sincere best wishes during this difficult time in your life.

Cynthia .. thank you so very much for this comment. I'm through the worst of it and will now move forward with a song in my heart and a smile on my face .. after all, isn't that what a Mother wants for her Son.

Mahalo, Merci, y Gracias,
Bill

Bill, the newness of deep loss is consuming, overwhelming in its distortion of our lives. I hope the beauty that surrounds you and the loving memories will give you some comfort. I still can feel the sense of my beloved grandmother Mollie when I am in nature sometimes or look up at early predawn stars. She gave me reassurance and stability in a life that wasn’t. “Always in our hearts...”
