Five Minute Friday: Lonely

Five Minute Friday




You went away and I am lonely. I haven't seen you, been hugged by you, for fifteen years. A lie broke us apart and she won.

We lost.

Our family was never the same; we were never the same. You got sicker and now the phone rings and you're gone. I dropped to the floor with a loneliness of heart and spirit and guilt that ripped me to the core.
I missed your birthday.

Now there will be no more. You were my first love and my first heartbreak. You died alone and took my heart with you. All that's left behind is an empty, aching, loneliness that only you can fill, but it's too late.

    Hi Suzanne
    He is waiting for you, dear one, there with our Lord Jesus where there is no illness, no pain and endless patience. He is not gone forever as you will be reunited once again one day! My heart cries with you!
    Love to you XX

      Thank you, Mia. I am happy that my daddy no longer suffers. He had such a tormented life, too much really to go into here. But, I am blessed in knowing that he was saved several years ago. I know that I will see him again someday, but it hurts knowing that I'll never see him or hear his voice this side of Heaven again.

      Thank you for stopping by and commenting. Have a great week!

      Thank you, Conny. I definitely love my daddy, and in a way, he lives through me and my children. We'll always have a part of him with us. I just wish that he could still be here and that everything could be okay.

      Thank you so much for stopping by and commenting. Have a great week!
