I needed you today.
I needed you so much it hurt to breathe.
There’s nothing I wouldn’t give to hold you one more time and tell you how much you mean to me.
I hope I told you this enough when you were here.
I hope you can hear me now when I say it inside my heart, over and over and over.
I love you.
I wish you could see what is going on in this world you left behind. Can you see?
It’s absolutely beyond belief.
And yet, I can almost hear your words of comfort, ‘this too shall pass’.
You would take this in your stride.
I needed you today.
I needed you so much it hurt to open my eyes and see a world without you.
Now that life is so very still, I can almost feel you beside me.
Are you beside me?
I like to think that’s you. Sitting with me in the darkness, through the hard times.
Like you always did in life.
Please stay.
I need you, very much.
I miss you, more than I ever thought possible.
