Hi,
This forum, for almost three years, has been so much support.
But how do I move forward? I feel I must let go to many things. The forum is one.
Is this easy? No. What we have all experienced cannot be explained. Only we can understand everything that is posted here.
My beautiful wife was all I adored for almost thirty years of my life and the future will never be the same. Did I ever imagine being alone when 51?
She'd want me to move forward but, my, that is so hard to do. I will however always, and have, do the best I can as to not be letting her down and all we aspired to be together.
We all experience a situation that others can't comprehend. Friends try to help but cannot truly understand. Only here we do. But even we need to move forward.
I wish everyone who finds the forum well.
Take care,
I'm going to leave with this:
I wish that we could talk again
Although I know we won't
And it won't (take) remove away the pain
Like the sunshine dries out the rain
I look around and see you there
Smiling at me, watching everywhere
I go along singing our song
The harmonies no longer, (not) yet still so strong
I wish that we could walk again
Hand in hand in the sun, wind or rain
The two of us together as one
The two of us when old as when young
I turn around and it's you I hear
Everywhere, all the time near
Quietly wanting to hear you much more
That voice of reason I adore
I wish that we could walk again
I look around and see you there
I wish that we could walk again
I turn around and it's you I hear
I know you're near.
Take care,
WDJ
