I’m Not Ready To Be A Widow

These were some of the last words I said to him.  He replied, “I’m not going to die.” Today is the day that made those words a lie. Today is the day I lost the love of my life. 

I always heard people say, it will get easier.  It does not.  I’ve read, time heals all wounds.  It does not. No amount of time makes this any easier.  Six years later and I’m still not ready. Like the song says…

“All I want is what I had.”
