Suffering the loss of loved ones
Does create great pain...
Especiallly knowing the days are limited!
However,
Enjoy each moment as if were the last!
For the beauty of life...
Is living
And tears only make it harder to face.
So if you have tears,
Make them happy ones
And the memories will last like treasures...
Always close to your heart,
Following you to your own demise!
Death is sad, yes
but
Death is a blessing sometimes too!
Writing of such hurt
After experiencing it already once
Is something you have to feel
I've been where you are now.
With the loss of fist one of my sisters,
Then my Mom and Dad.
So
All I can say is this...
Love your brother every day
And be sure you tell him while you can...
And both of your hearts will grieve less
For love conquers all, even in the end.
But really, passing over the veil,
Is not something to fear...
For one day you will all be together again!
