8:12 Am

Grief and joy live within the same section of the soul; without joy there would be no loss. 

As our worlds go from day to night and day again we experience the circle of life and the inevitable surge of panic that, one day, there will be only one last sunrise to share. And as we capture the split second in time when our loved ones were still here, we take small comfort in knowing that their spirits exist within the clouds, the ocean, and the everlasting sun. 

There will always be a sunrise but there will never be another sunrise with you.

Sometime Between 10:47 Am and 11:02 Am

Sweet heart 
Sweet baby

I promised I would take you to the Ocean
Your Soul does not belong in a little box 
Your Spirit is too big to be confined
I know that you are already gone but I cannot let go of you just yet 

Sweet heart 
Sweet baby 

I promise I will, one day, take you down to the water so that you can see 
the whole world and all of the oceans

I cannot do that today

Sweet heart 
Sweet baby

I need your beautiful box close to me when I go to sleep, when I wake up
I want to keep you a little longer
I have so many more lives to live before I get to the place where you are now 
I know you led a beautiful sweet life
I know that your journey leads you to a more beautiful place
I need to keep you here with me 

Thank you for letting me keep you here with me

I love you 
Sweet heart
Sweet baby
 
You came to visit me in the sunshine and in the wind 
Most of the time you're gone 

You took a little piece of my heart and soul with you on your journey
You let me keep a little piece of your heart and soul here with me in return
 
It was the best exchange I ever made

The 24th of Any Month

I found the place 
It is not far 
There is wind at the top  
It carries your spirit 
Near the ocean but above the sound 
The place is quiet the place is green 
It is like your eyes 
In the ocean and in the wind 
But you will never be here again 

Another place I thought you would like 
There was a curve there was an ocean 
The cactus bloomed 
 Despite the damage
 It grew and flourished 
In the breeze and in the ocean 
You are there but you are not here
