It has been a little over a year for me. Still hard at times. The memories are slowly fading - can't remember his face at times without looking at pictures - which I do quite often, can't remember the sound of his voice either. LIfe has been difficult this past year without him. My older son is having such a hard time rasing his 2 & 4 year olds sons on his own since his wife left. I worry for him that he doesn't have a nervous breakdown. Stress of his job and not getting laid off, the stress of raising the boys by himself for the most part (I help out when I can - probably not as much as I should or could). All this without my support system - Paul. Life is so NOT FAIR! Everything just spiralled down since his death and I feel like such a "misfit." Family thinks 'cause it has been a year that I am "healed." Not so. Does it get better? Will I smell the roses again? I dispise people at work with spouses and hate to hear about their weekends, trips, plans for the future, just going home to someone! I feel bad that I feel this way. Not right. I should dispise them because their spouse was not torn away from them. Pls keep me in your prayers. Haven’t seen any postings in a while. It has been a little over a year for me.

But with respect to you and your fine poem, I suggest: "The delemma's not just grieving" In misery you can't share "But where to find a body" You can love again and care. It’s a lovely poem, Corinne, about love lost to death. But with respect to you and your fine poem, I suggest:

“The delemma’s not just grieving”
In misery you can’t share
“But where to find a body”
You can love again and care.
