Sunshine Of Your Love...
The past few days I've been very sad...feeling alone, not lonely - there seems to be a difference - I've wondered if my husband has any idea of what life is like for me, if he knows that I don't know what I'm doing, how I question everything, I wonder what my future will be now that he is not with me, does he know that sometimes I don't want to be here without him?
A continuous stream of thoughts that usually make me feel even more sure that I'm way beyond the left side of the curve that I've spent most of my life sailing on.
The sun was shining and the sky was a crystal clear blue, the air was crisp and there was a slight breeze, perfect weather. I was driving to Westport (7:00 AM) kind of zoned out and the tears just started to fall ~ I thought maybe some music will help lift my spirits - I turned on the stereo and while reaching for my CD's, a song came on the radio, (in general most music on the radio, AM or FM, unless it's a college station, Jazz or Blues, isn't worth the energy to press the on button).
I was stunned by the song that was on...and I knew in that moment that it was my husband sending me a message. His favorite band, aside from the Beatles was Cream...and this is the song and verse that was playing...
Im with you my love,
The lights shining through on you.
Yes, Im with you my love,
Its the morning and just we two.
Ill stay with you darling now,
Ill stay with you till my seas are dried up.
Ive been waiting so long
Ive been waiting so long
Ive been waiting so long
To be where Im going
In the sunshine of your love.
(Cream - Sunshine Of Your Love)
Yes, I cried even more, even harder, but I also smiled for the first time in days :)

Hollow...
You move beyond my reach and as my heart is aching so is the empty place that I held you close arms wrapped around each other with thoughts of how short our time would be and then we knew and we said it all everyday…I love you, I’ll always love you, I couldn’t have done this without you…forever love, forever and then some but it was not enough time to find a point of acceptance or complete comprehension of what it would be like with you on one side and me on the other so we looked deeply into each others eyes and understood the power as you passed from my light into your own and I still reach out in the dark of the night to feel your warmth and make a wish as I knock on wood that you will always hear my soul speak out your name and vow to love you forever and then some…

Every photograph speaks volumes...
No need for words
When your smile is enough
To tell me all I need to know
When the reflection in your eyes
Has shown me all the love
that I have ever wanted
The gentle touch of your hand
outlined a map to my heart
leading us to a place we call home...
* * * *
Just another dream...
Meditating deep breath in and long slow breath out, focus on the way your chest rises and then falls and in the midst of all the effort to focus, off in the distance I can hear your voice, you say something and I automatically respond, with that we have a conversation as if everything were as it once was, you hold my hand and make me smile along with tears you touch my cheek and my hair and I know that you are with me, I beg you not to leave - you say you are always with me and I understand what you mean and it makes me wonder how I can go on without you…
