“Picking Up the Pieces After You”

It’s a day I never wanted to face. The day that I would have to go on without you by my side. You left us all so suddenly, and while the pain of your absence is so difficult to bear, life must go on. As much as I wish you could stay, I know that your spirit lives on in our hearts.

Every day without you is a challenge, and I find myself trying to figure out how to fill the gaping hole you have left. All I want is for you to come back and make everything okay again.

However, I also know that it’s time for me to pick up the pieces of my life. I will do my best to make sure that your memory will remain with us all forever. I know that this isn’t something that I can do on my own and that’s why I’ve turned to my friends and family for help. I’m so thankful to have their support during this difficult time.

As I work on gathering the broken parts of my life and putting them back together, I realize that although you’re not here anymore, I can still carry the pieces of you that remain. Through those, I know that your legacy and memory will never be forgotten. I find myself striving to be a better person every day, in hopes that it would make you proud of me.

Every night, as I lay my head on my pillow, I whisper a prayer, knowing that it will reach you in some way. I thank you for all the memories that I will always keep close to my heart, and I hope that wherever you are, you know how much you will always be loved and remembered.
