I need you so much closer



Four Years

Two Weddings
Two Funerals
Two graduations
Too many girlfriends

Love lost
Love found
Love is hard
Love gets us through

New pets
New smiles
New friends
New church

Happiness found
Happiness lost
Happiness seems impossible
Happiness eventually comes again

Too many moments wondering why
Too many disappointments
Too many regrets
Too much time spent in the in-between

Four years I have missed you....
Four years I have grieved you....
For years I have wondered when the hurt ends....
Four years......

That was beautiful and honest.
As a mother I dread leaving my children, as your friend, if my daughters turn out as talented and good hearted as you, I would be content. She is proud of you, near or far.

XOXO

Bekah, I just saw this today. And I can never express to you the deep sadness I feel for your loss.
My deepest love and heartfelt prayers go out to you and yours. You are just as beautiful as your mother is. And I say is, cause they are never really gone. Ever.

unfortunately my heart is in the same sad place as you. missing someone practically everyday for 5 years straight gets old. yes it gets easier, no the longing never goes away. eventhough i am surrounded by absoulutely amazing people...none of them are my momma. let's chat about this more sometime?
