This poem comes out your completely opened heart. This is the saddest part of the gift of love which enhances our life continually when it is what Shakespeare called A MARRIAGE OF TRUE MINDS - that is marriage seen through the longest possible lens of past, present, future. But when the surviving partner is bereft of all the wonderful sharing compressed in the phrase TRUE MINDS, the suffering is solitary. There is no easy way to live through such loss. It is a kind of ultimate confrontation with our human mortality. Your way of coping is an ideal reaction: you are turning suffering into prayer and poetry! !
