An old friend of mine passed away this morning after a long battle with cancer. This makes six people gone from my life since July 2006. The wounds in my heart are still fresh from the last time, and I don't even know what to think or say about Steve. He was a good person with a kind heart and a wonderful sense of humor, and he is gone from this world way too early (he was in his mid-twenties). It hurts. I want to cry, but I can't. The tears won't come. I know they will eventually, and when they do it will help...I just don't know how much. I can't take much more of this. Every time I feel like I'm starting to heal, I lose someone else. I'm starting to wonder if the Powers That Be have fallen asleep on the job...or if they are even there anymore.
Have I mentioned that I still haven't slept yet, and I'm starving? Yeah, not a good combination, especially when topped with grief. RIP Steve. I'm glad you're no longer in pain. I will miss you.
