Time To Move On -

if she permitted i would have curled in a ball in a dark closet somewhere and wept my whole life “too many tears are too much“ “grief is a bottomless pit”.... i read a MAAD book that lectured me on coping with a loved one lost of an only son ‘lean into it’ they advised i learned not to lean i learned my lesson the lesson was not to lean on anyone but myself and my late lost wife i knelt face down on his rug she came and knelt over me when we heard the news the news of our worst nightmare our nightmare come true six months of eternity so it seemed----she knelt once more: “it’s time to move on”... (to this day i’ve not heeded her advice twelve years after) Submitted for: Anthony Slausen’s 'Moving On’ contest
