With each passing week
My heart is filled with a void
With the knowledge
You are not here.
I look at the calendar
And cannot believe
How long it's been .
Did life just pass by
Without you here at my side?
Am I the only one holding on
To the life there was
When you were here?

SADNESS is a universal quality of emotion we all feel from time to time, and it is important to put in context. Sadness comes and then it goes. What comes always goes eventually. And when we say, "This too shall pass," we say a truth, whether it is a good thing or a sad thing that passes. All things pass.
I had a dream, this past May
Where I sat in the park in great dismay
Dark clouds loomed above me,
with I in despair,
My life was ending with no repair.
