i carry your heart with me (i carry it in my heart)

April 8, 2018.  11:52pm.  My darling husband took his last breath.  I held his hand, blessed to be by his side as he left this world.  After 2 and a half years of watching him fight the beast that is cancer, knowing he was fighting for me, for us, it was time.  Saying goodbye was hard, but watching him suffer those last few days was harder. 

And so here I am, a month later, widowed and missing my Love. 

here is the deepest secret nobody knows
(here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud
and the sky of the sky of a tree called life;which grows
higher than soul can hope or mind can hide)
and this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart

i carry your heart(i carry it in my heart)
