Losing someone is never easy.
The feeling is the same
No matter how it happened
No matter the type of loss.
A break up.
A death.
A betrayal.
The emptiness.
The missing pieces.
An arm no longer available to hold while you sleep.
A vacant pillow.
The ringtone you'll never hear again.
The walk down the aisle that won't happen.
That sisterly advice you'll never hear.
The mother's hug, absent.
All replaced with silence.
Absence.
Losing someone is not the end.
The love carries on.
No matter how long ago it happened.
No matter how bad it felt.
A life.
A hearty laugh.
A new love.
A song that seeps in on the radio.
A photo found.
A video shot on a borrowed cam corder.
That dinner you make with that one recipe.
The letter that arrives in the mail a year later.
The memories linger.
All embracing.
Keeping the one you lost by your side.
