Love, Lose and Live anyway.

When you cross my mind, I'm reminded of the three L's.

Of the Love I held for you.
The pain of your Loss.
And the fact that I somehow have to find a way to Live with it,
Re-learn how to live life without it.

It hits me that I'll have to endure this journey without your various depths,
That I will feel your absence till I myself am robbed of breath.

But then just before you leave, I'm reminded again.
Of the joys that come with living,
The happiness that comes from knowing I loved you, verily.
That I get to carry you with me merrily.

That even though in the end I lost; I still won,
Because I get to remember that amongst everything.

I got too love and be loved by
You, of all things.

It's now a gentle comfort to know that till my death I get to love you still,

and that until then you'll always have a place to call home. <3
