Life Only Promised Death

The only thing we are promised in this life, is that we are all going to die. At least that is what my dad has always said. In truth though, death comes for us all, making it inevitably so. I don’t think death is something the human mind can ever fully comprehend. I say this because I often have to remind myself that you were real. Logically I know you existed because I lived it and yet it would seem my mind tries to play tricks on me. It doesn’t help that over time memories fade into something dream-like.

All these things make it impossible to understand how someone can be part of your everyday life, mean everything to you, and then somehow disappear forever. Never to be seen or heard from again. Leaving me with the children we shared to pick up the broken pieces of my life. No, there is no logic in this, and I can’t be convinced otherwise.

Beauty is not makeup or the stylish clothes you wear.

It’s the way you live, love, and the way you care.

I’ll love you forever my beautiful queen.

You will always be the one who saves me in my dreams.

Your words carved forever in my arm… but you’re gone for always because in my dreams you were always just out of reach. Or rather, this twisted reality. That was years ago… You’d be happy to know I’ve moved on. I’m honestly doing just fine. Am I over it? That answer will always be no. People don’t get over something like that or ever really let it go. We simply find comfort in the awful fact that we are not alone because life only promised one thing.

I truly hope you are resting in peace.
