Michele

You can shed tears that Michele is gone,
or you can smile because she lived.
You can close your eyes and pray that Michele will come back,
or you can open your eyes and see all she has left.
Your heart can be empty because you cannot see Michele,
or you can be full of the love and friendship you shared.
You can turn your back on tomorrow and live yesterday,
or you can be happy for tomorrow because of yesterday.
You can remember Michele and only that she is gone,
or you can cherish her memory and let it live on.
You can cry and close your mind, be empty and turn your back,
or you can do what Michele would want -
Smile, open your eyes, love and go on (D Harkins)

Our first Christmas apart and it is so tough. I wish I could do what the words above say but it is not easy. I miss you so much, my life is so empty without you. You were my everything and my heart hurts so much. I love you my precious angel. Mark.
