Yes bluebird- EVERYTHING.


Then there is the regular occurrence of reliving the final day and hours of his life. This is yet another memory that constantly haunts me. I go over and over the events of that day. The pointless what ifs and should ofs. The unavoidable heavy guilt that I cannot escape.

The look in his eyes..... My god- I will forever carry that vision in my memory. First- those beautiful eyes filled with so much pain and fear. Then... a few short agonizing hours later.... those very same eyes of my beloved and cherished soulmate...irreversibly and forever void of all light. For a brief moment my mind was confused and was trying to reject the unacceptable reality that was forcing itself upon me. But then I felt all the heavy crushing grief consume me and erase all that I had once been. Fracturing me into a million pieces and leaving me broken and empty. Forever un-raveled and weird. Sentenced to lifetime of pain.

I would do pretty much anything to leave this earth……….

Tildy, it's like that for me as well -- everything is divided into before-he-died and after-he-died.  Posts I made online, movies that came out, life events, books I've read, etc.  EVERYTHING.

Every single time I see a date that's earlier than Feb. 4th, 2014- I always always say to myself- That's when Mark was still alive- still with me. And I'll try to remember what he or we where doing at that time. And how unaware and oblivious we where of the upcoming destruction of our lives as we knew it. The irreversible damage to my very existence. So unaffected and vulnerable. It's one of the main events on my extensive list of triggers that makes my heart drop and the tears start. I don't believe I will ever recover- or ever truly be happy- ever again.

Everyday I wonder how I got through the days since Cherie's death.

Comment by Fran on June 5, 2015 at 10:43am

We have to quit beating ourselves up for how we feel! 

Comment by bluebird on June 4, 2015 at 11:26pm

rachel_michelle, I so know what you mean about not being here, in the present -- I still exist back on the day my husband died, and  always will.

Comment by rachel_micele on June 4, 2015 at 9:37pm

As Tidyc posted, "why is my broken heart still beating?". Exactly. I don't know how I'm even alive, let alone how to survive this awful grief. As m morgan said, "I am just "doing" because I am breathing." Also, exactly. Each day that goes by I feel more stretched, pulled apart, something that I can't get my finger on. I'm not here in today, in June 4th. I'm still "back there" at 87 days ago living in March 10th.

Finding it harder everyday without Mary I don't see any relief at all the loneliness is like nothing I've ever experienced before like you Richard I do my best to get through everyday I just sit here and wonder why i attempt it nothing means anything to me at all if the world exploded I don't think it would make a difference I'm just so tired of being without her

It was not supposed to be like this

In 2014 I met the most amazing man ever. We were both in our very early 20s and were looking for different things at the time. We ceased communication for roughly 6 months. During which time, he completed basic training and joined the Air Force. By the time we reconnected he was already at his first duty station.. 8 hours away.We decided we wanted to continue our relationship and proceeded to cultivate a deeply emotional connection. Regular calls and video chats, visits while he was home on…See More
