Widow Words (by Jessica Heath)

I live in the past cause that’s all that I have
Some memories are good some memories are sad
I know there’s a future somewhere out there for me
But the pain and the sorrow make it harder to see
I want to be happy and not feel so alone
I’m tired of hitting doors just made of stone
I’m tired of staring at nothing all day
I’m tired of being and feeling this way
I try and I try to get out of this hole
I dig and I dive down deep in my soul
One day I will be happy I know this is true
But for now I stay in the past here with you

It’s just over 3 years and 3 months for me, and yes time certainly has passed quickly. The days are getting easier to cope with, but it still feels so unreal. A different life now.
I talk to Alan every day (and sometimes shout at him for leaving me) and the tears still fall. Our lives will never be the same.
Take care x
