It happened

The day she said 'it's over'...

When my life paused

when my blood froze

when the dam in my eyes burst

when the world reverted into a frightening place

when                          re-filled the void

when I lowered my head again

when I felt so lonely

when you said goodbye

There is nothing like that emptiness when you lose someone, whether its from a love union that's run its course, or a loved one passing...it's so hard to let go and face each day knowing their life force will not be a part of your world anymore. Your words are simple, but poignant. They touch the heart like an uber sharp pin, pricking just enough to draw that glistening drop of blood. Well penned, my friend.

I invest it all Pam. I'm the guy at the roulette wheel or at the craps table shoving all the chips onto one number - but not that good at losing nor letting go nor revisiting the pain. Getting there - a wee bit at a time though - as we all do.
Thank you dear Pam - it's great to see you !

There are times when you have to tell yourself that it's over 'cause that person left you hanging, leaving without even a goodbye,just like that.. and you're left wondering what you did... and that moment is like an in-between situation..you can't let go and not even give up hope that maybe there's a 1% chance of their returning back...
I'm sorry I'm rambling Tony, but this piece brought back memories.. I totally feel how you feel.. Heart-touching, my friend..

The heart wants what the heart wants, and sometimes there's just no getting over it. But the letting go is the hardest part.

It reads with a pulse, Tony!

So true Kelly - once in a lifetime the one that we can't get over changes the whole landscape forever.
Thank you very much Kelly.

I feel your pain my friend.
Losing the best pal, I agree, worst aspect of all.
Thank you for sharing J.
