That Moment...

Always - Remember the Rainbow!

~~ ABSENCE ~~

That moment after months of trying to adjust to widowhood, 

when your first real crisis hits resurfacing your grief with

 an acute stab as you realize anew s/he is not

here to share the burden, the fear of this

fresh wound

When new loss reminds you how alone you are without
the presence of your soulmate’s love, voice

companionship and familiar touch
