Pieces to the Puzzle

People keep saying it will get better.  It takes time.  There are pieces to the puzzle, do this, do that.  I've tried it all.  I'm trying it all.


- Grief counselor
- Lexaopro
-Ambien
-Writing this journal
-Finding a project
-Keeping a routine, making something normal
-Making our own choices
-Talking honestly with my husband about our feelings


All the pieces just don't add up to anything.  None of it fits.  Nothing helps, and I don't think anything will. It's all gone.


I can see his precious face and grin and smile.  I can hear his voice.


I can hear Daddy say my name. I can hear his little throat clearing cough. I can hear his laugh.


It's all gone.
