you are my hero
now and always
my big brave strong handsome man
now lay broken and crumpled
a wretch tears through me
up my spine
down my throat
the tremors in your limbs
rip through my heart
your hollow sallow cheeks
make my stomach rise
choking my heart on its way
your cold hands trembling in mine
shiver through the hollow core where my soul once resided
you have a lot of nerve
leaving me like this
i'm sure one day
i will forgive you
i thought I would be ready
i was wrong
i was so fucking wrong
fuck 'em if they can't take a joke

    I had a lot of thoughts about this one. First, I wanted to give you a hug.

    Second, I wanted to say that when my mom's husband died of lymphoma, she was heart-broken and felt really guilty about also being angry at her husband for leaving her alone. Her grief counselor told her it was very normal to feel that way. You probably already know that, but I thought I'd share it with you because it helped my mom feel less guilty about being angry. :geek:

    I wish I could wrap you up in comfort and make you feel that everything will be okay.
    I wish I could say something, anything at all to help you the way you've helped and supported me.
    Alas, I'm just not that good with words.

    I'm sorry.

    Sending my prayers, and love.

    Be well
    Peace, Love.

    your words a dedication to love to life

    you make it so that I can imagine,
    so much so it scares me

    now I'm crying here and at a loss of more to say

    I am so very sorry for this

    love stays ... you will always have the love

    thanks, all
    thanks, pandi, as usual,
    your words fall sweet
    fuck 'em if they can't take a joke
