Alfred, Lord Tennyson
from In Memoriam A.H.H. 5

I sometimes hold it half a sin
To put in words the grief I feel:
For words, like Nature, half reveal
And half conceal the Soul within.

But, for the unquiet heart and brain,
A use in measured language lies;
The sad mechanic exercise,
Like dull narcotics, numbing pain.

In words, like weeds, I'll wrap me o'er,
Like coarsest clothes against the cold;
But that large grief which these enfold
Is given outline and no more.



It is hard to believe that Terry died 6 months ago today. It is very difficult to put into words how I feel. It doesn't seem possible that he is no longer here. I still expect for him to walk in the door. I think I miss him more now than I did when he first died. Life has just marched on for everyone. Time has seemed to stand still for me. I'm still searching for my "new normal".
 
I wish I had some kind of helpful words for you.
I don't, but we're here, and we're listening.
 
Big men, like big ships, leave big waves in the wake of their passing. Eventually, the waters of your lives will smooth out. The distance between the passing and the smoothing is a measure of the man.
 
Miss, I am so sorry, I have no words of wisdom but I will be praying for Peace in your heart, healing and strength to go forward. {{{HUG}}}

What TR said was a wonderful way to explain it. Very nice TR.
 
Missy, I am sorry for your loss and grief. Praying the Lord will give you grace, peace, mercy and show you a little bit of sunshine today. ~ Judy
 
I hope you don't mind...


i go you go,my dear;and whatever is done
by only me is your doing,my darling)

i fear
no fate(for you are my fate,my sweet)i want
no world(for beautiful you are my world,my true)
and it's you are whatever a moon has always meant
and whatever a sun will always sing is you

here is the deepest secret nobody knows
(here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud
and the sky of the sky of a tree called life;which grows
higher than soul can hope or mind can hide)
and this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart

i carry your heart(i carry it in my heart)
