They say time heals all wounds, but I rather think that time just passes by. The gaping hole left in our hearts is still there, but it’s hidden behind the life that we’ve lived~the experiences, the joys, and the sorrows~ that have kept us occupied since that day. It’s a little less prominent in the landscape but still there, nonetheless.
Happy birthday Dad. Miss you still.
A candle flickers
out of sight,
but in your heart
I still burn bright.
Think not of sadness,
that I’m not near,
think of gladness
and joyous cheer.
