Not doing too well

May 16, 2006 15:29

Well I am still not doing very well about the whole Baby Doll thing. I can't take it. I keep crying at random times during the day. It is better when I am with people b/c then I am distracted...but then comes the night...and I can't take it anymore. I cry my eyes out in my bed and I can't sleep and then I wake up at all hours and think that he isn't there. I can't walk around my apartment without looking down for a dog that is gone. My dad refuses to even talk about it. He can't. I mentioned the dog today and he bit my head off and told me that we couldn't talk about him or what happened. I know that Michelle is sick of hearing me talk about it. I just can't stop. One of the ladies I work with gave me a poem and I am going to post it here. It is really nice.

To have loved and then said farewell, is better than to have never loved at all.
For all of the times that you have stooped and touched my head, fed me my favorite treat and returned the love that I so unconditionally gave to you.
For the care that you gave to me so unselfishly.
For all of these things I am grateful and thankful.

I ask that you not grieve for the loss, but rejoice in the fact that we lived, loved and touched each others lives. My life was fuller because you were there, not as a master/owner, but as my FRIEND.

Today I am as I was in my youth. The grass is always green, butterflies flit among the flowers and the Sun shines gently down upon all of God's creatures.
I can run, jump, play and do all of the things that I did in my youth. There is no sickness, no aching joints and no regrets and no aging.

We await the arrival of our lifelong companions and know that togetherness is forever.
You live in our hearts as we do in yours. Companions such as you are so rare and unique.
Don't hold the love that you have within yourself. Give it to another like me and then I will live forever. For love never really dies, and you are loved and missed as surely as we are.
