Saying goodbye
It has been a month since I let you go.
It has been an eternity since I held you close.
How could something so small occupy so much space?
Creating an emptiness that is just that.
Remembering the good times when you were circling my feet-reminding me that it was time to take a break from whatever and spend time with you.
Holding you in my arms and telling you that it was going to be “ok” – all the time knowing that it was not.
Pretending now that it is only a matter of time before you will be back home. Knowing that you have already returned – as ashes.
You are in my heart. You fill my memory with so much joy and sadness. I have lost a dear friend…
