nur kommentar What leukemia didn't take

[Donna]

In loving memory of Ulrich~

 

You carried us in your heart until your last breath

Is that love all gone through the thieving of death?

Never

Love is timeless, patient in intrusion

As also untouchable, even in confusion 

 

Those final words, the letter, bring your voice back to life

You have a sister, children, a niece and a wife

And in our leaden grief, we lean on each other

Feeling your Spirits presence above us, hover

 

We know you did not want to go

 

Fighting valiantly, in years racked with pain; time you tried to sway 

What we would give, to have you here another day

Is that selfish?

No.

You told us how much you wanted to stay

 

Enormous courage made you determined 

 

Dazzling tears, like diamonds on our lashes, never run dry

It hurts, every day living, burdened by this goodbye 

 

Nothing comforts, memory shuffles

 

When night falls, our gaze searches for the brightest winking star

You are here, you are there, you are everywhere that we are

Liebe @Donna

 

Solche Abschiede sind schwer und von großer Trauer begleitet. Trotz aller Stärke, trotz aller Hoffnung holt sich der Tod die Ernte. Es bleibt nur die Liebe zu diesem Menschen und ein Bündel schöner Erinnerungen. 

 

Berührend von dir geschrieben!
