Happiest Moments

The happiest moments of my life I owe to you entirely Without you I would’ve been Less than I am, less a man The best memories of my life Will always bear your name For after you were born My life was never the same Now that you are gone I will never be whole But you are always near Picking up the pieces I absently leave behind Constantly breathing life into me The life you once lived Now must sustain me And I promise to honor you

It is such an incredibly long road, but I am gradually shaking the ache and finding joy again. Writing certainly helps me and I feel like Brooks is right there helping me find the words. You are so wonderful to read my poems and let me know your thoughts. Thank you.
