Its sweetness is known only by those, who in their passing have smelled its fragrance. The pain of those left behind has a fragrance all its own, a bittersweet emanation that assails the senses with its pungency. The strength of the void, left by the passing of one loved, seems endless. Time and faith, working in unison, will lessen the strength and fill the void.
