I support your right to make this choice.
I understand that you did not have a choice.
I don't truly respect your choice.
The cessation of pain is what matters though, right?
I am so glad you are not hurting anymore.
Now I hurt more; there's nothing I will do to ease this burden.
I miss your voice.
I miss your smell.
I miss the possibility that things could change and we could love each other without hurting each other.
I miss you.
And I miss you.
And I even miss you. Though only the Gods know why.
You only caused me pain when I asked very nicely.
You never caused me pain in any single way.
I don't know what you did except hurt me.
It doesn't seem to matter how much I love you or miss you.
Your story was really and truly never about me; I was a witness.
Even though your life could have been about me and it wasn't.
I grieve so hard for you.
Any piece of fresh grief touches the memory of you and reignites the pain afresh and the waves feel like they will swamp me.
"Have you ever lost anyone close to you?" Dripping with scorn and implication that I am not allowed to grieve for anything to do with you.
It's all tied up.
I can't separate one grief from another today.
What I know is that there are no more chances to fix anything.
There is no way to find you more help.
There is no way to find you new treatments.
There is no way to find our way to a new way of being.
You are gone.
You and
You and
Time has run out.
Loss
