Holding on

It's unfortunate to be feeling sad

when we still have so much left to be happy for.

We mourn one when we could be enjoying the rest...

cause "the rest" makes it seem like you've been left out...

How can we go on without you?...

Do you feel all alone?

Are they keeping you company?...

Is it ok for us to be happy yet?

I'm not sure if I want to be...

I worry that, if I'm happy again, I'll be leaving you behind.

I never thought I'd second guess the end of suffering

Death is so absolute, so permanent, so final.

I never thought I'd want the sorrow...

The sorrow keeps you near.

I never thought there'd be something worse...

It's better than being without you.
