Love Conquers All

I have just realised, six years ago today, I sent you on your way. I had taken a leap into the unknown. If only I knew where I was going. To hell and back, as it turned out. Despair and depression for years hung about. No reserves of energy left, to cope with the fallout. The beautiful girls that we had created, could not fathom this marriage cremation. Hurt and angry they turned on me. So sad they could not see. For love of them I had stayed with you. Twenty years too long. Time has healed our gaping wounds. Love has lifted all our connections back to perfection. Six years it took. From today.
