The outside of your door
still smells like you,
as I hold the knob
and then let go…
I cannot go into your space
just yet.
I cannot clean or visit
the things you left behind
in turmoil,
chaos,
and pandemonium.
This still seems surreal —
a bad nightmare
full of confusion
as it took me by surprise
even when I foresaw the outcome
so very long ago.
You are gone
to a place I cannot reach for a while.
But,
here behind the door
sits your life
the way you left it
and it’s okay to allow
the memory cells
to reside there.
Time has a way of moving
even the static
that was left between us both.
You will always have
the love
that you rejected
as a safety net
to return to the four walls
behind this small entrance.

Such beautiful, heartfelt sentiment. I can feel the sadness and the hope which inspired the words. Keep the faith, lean forward, and know that God is watching over you both. Love you bunches!
thank you, dear friend. Time heals all. God is a gracious being!
I truly like your simple and accurate narrative writing form. It touches within. Besides, my experience is that people who pronounce their observations made about their feelings the way you do, prepare to soon be met by love.
