Nothing prepared me
for this deep abyss
of loss.
One day, you're a couple
and then
you're one.
Your identity has changed
you search high and low
then you realize once again
you're just one.
You no longer fit
with other couples
so you tend to shy away.
Because, it reminds you once again
you're just one.
I was very happily married to Ray for 36 1/2 years. We have been together for over 38 years. I thank God everyday for bringing Ray into my life. Ray was my first and only love and I miss him more than life itself. I used to write short stories & poetry as a way to help in my recovery from my childhood. I journal quite a bit. Writing is a release for me and helps me to cleanse my soul.
