- There's no more normalcy, no peace at all. My world crumbled at my feet that morning I got the call.
- I was just waking up, beginning my day. My phone rang early and I listened in shock to what she had to say.
- She asked me if I knew you and it hit me right then - you'd been taken from me, I'd never see you again.
- I stood frozen in disbelief, trying to convince myself it wasn't be true. Aloud, I spoke to you as if you were there, "tell me what happened. What did you do?"
- My knees went weak, I shook uncontrollably and began to fall. Upon the floor I now lay with a more empty feeling than I can ever recall.
- My tears fell freely like that of pouring rain. Nothing I've experienced in this lifetime could ever compare to the pain.
- Words cannot describe how I felt in that time and place. How I yearned to hug you again, to just see your face....
- Looking back now, it's been years since that day. I've still and yet, to find a way. An easier way to cope without you here. At least I have our memories and next to my heart, I hold them dear.
