I ache for those no longer here
I try to hold them close
They slip away
Â
I search for meaning in my losses
I question Life
I question You
Â
I mourn and I remember
Can I heal my fractured heart?
Â
I hear echoes of my beloveds:
Laughing, joyous, crying, bereft
Their happiness and their sorrows
Are now my own heart’s song
