I grieve, not for you, but for myself. Knowing that when you are gone I will go with you. The flesh will remain, but the spirit will fade. For without you, I am nothing. I know this because, before you, I was empty inside, like a vacant house. Until you made my heart your home. Filling me with laughter, pain and memories. With perseverance even the snail reached the Ark. |

A really well written work. ^,^ It is really nice to find someone who can stay in our hearts like u said, but it's also scary to think that this person will be so important that he controls what we feel as well. |

My heart goes out to you, dear one. Once someone is in your heart it is just not possible to take them out again. I pray the future will have all the joy and happiness you desire to fill your heart again. ![]() Love I leave with you whether it is in your life now or yet the essense of your dreams. |

I was empty inside, like a vacant house. Until you made my heart your home. Filling me with laughter, pain and memories. Poems should evoke emotions in those that read them. This one sure does I know these must be very rough times for you. I hope writing helps to focus on the good memories. Dan Death comes not when we cease to breathe, but when we cease to dream. |

A very scary emotion that is honest and real. Very well done. |
