When I Remember You, I will Smile

A difficult task
demanding years
of work:

to gently kiss
your beloved,
but painful,
past goodbye
with honest love
and compassion;

to let go
those loved
and lost
with a smile
and a wave.

But the morning
shines brightly,
the day beckons,
tomorrow whispers,
come to me,
in your ear.

A difficult task,
but necessary:

not to forget,
but to continue,
glad for what was
living in what is.

  1. It hasn't been easy for any of us who have gone through a divorce, but it's the best advice for those we've loved and lost, especially when we still love them and probably always will.
