Quiet

November 26th, 2006 by Atomictumor

(Damned technology
I wrote this post once, and it
didn’t get online)

Everybody’s gone
Its just me and the two boys
The way things will be

G’s playing a game
Pigpen is watching “Pirates”
I might take a nap

Bit of a headache
From yesterday’s revelries
Need to decompress

Put the pictures up
That took up most the morning
In albums, away

Goodbye, my lady
Your boys will be safe and sound
Me, G, and Pigpen

We had a good life
Without you, we will also
And I know you’re here

Between the seconds
In the spaces around life
You are always here

Your arms around us
Your breath whispers in my ear
Your love is so real.

Goodbye, my sweet B
Its time to move on, baby
We’ll be together.

    Sometimes words fail us;
    You carry power to heal
    In your own two hands.

    No haiku.

    Yes.
    That’s it.

    Enter the new day
    Always remember her love
    That will never fail

    Take a bite of life
    The life she would wish for you
    She’s with you always

    You’ve been a real inspiration to all of us AT. Over the last three weeks you’ve had to deal with events and make decisions that very few of us will face in life. I agree, you’re a real hero in my eyes. Monday will be a regular old back at work day for most of us, just another Monday after another holiday. But to you and the boys, it’s a new journey. I know you will make the best. You are always in my prayers and thoughts.

    waking to darkness,
    counting the lonely nights–still
    colder days to come
