Missing
Suddenly alone, so all these images
Flood back, the
Memories of days gone,
People gone, things gone.
Hurt can enter a moment where things are absent, gone, perhaps lost.
An empty chair or side of the bed can open a wash of sadness.
Feeling sad, a life lived full of things and people can feel a little scary because nothing stays the same:
Life gets jumbled up with changes.
Feeling sad can lead to feeling better, feeling thankful,
Feeling alive,
Feeling loved and hopeful.
