I realize you've been gone

gone so long I wouldn't

those dreams
died with you
on that night..........
I miss you......
I miss the me
I was

that me is gone
she disappeared
that night
right along with

so I light this candle tonight.........

closure is elusive.....

AhhhhJaymee....as I lite the candle last night at 7 for your little girl...I prayed, and with many prayers.....from many people...the day will come when you can light a candle without so much pain....You've been so brave and courageous too. All the many adjustments is has taken to see you through. I'm very proud of you.
