The heart holds a great capacity for love. It does not love just one at a time and becomes full. It never fills up, no matter how much love grows there. The loss of a child, for a step-parent is just as deep as it is for a natural parent. We don't realize this and are not deliberately cruel in it either.

Grief is a word that cannot be explained, only felt. We try, over and over again to tell others who have not been here what it is like. How we've changed, the world has changed, everything has changed. They do not comprehend the all consuming emotions that have us in it's grip. They do not understand that grief trumps all, takes over ones life no matter how hard we fight it.

This year has brought and end to innocence. I spent my life thinking that if I treated others good, they would do the same. Sure, there were drawbacks on that. You just can't please everyone.

I did not like hurting anyone's feelings, even if they were shit-heads.

A Letter to my Honey

Hello there my honey - Just some things I'd like to say

I had no chance to speak to you before I left so suddenly that day
So first I want to let you know, I arrived here in heaven OK
And I'm writing this letter sitting right next to God's throne
He's telling me the words to say

INVISIBLE WITHOUT YOU.

I'm invisible without you.
No one remembers my name.
I'm invisible without you.
Only I can still feel the pain.

Twelve weeks ago, we said good bye in the most painful of ways,
I held you as I watched you die, and took half my heart away.
But life goes on, or so they say, For me it's just a blur.
I fumble through each lonely day, with memories which stir
So many thoughts of all our times, bring smiles and tears together.
So watch over me and just know this,
