Mystical Mundane

When a life ends, it's like the entirety of what they were returns to it's source. The emptiness and void I feel is the Lack of Her. As she  withdrew from here, she disentangled, disengaged from me. Her loss as physically painful as a part of my body being removed. Soon, I hope I will be able to learn to more clearly feel her presence in it's new form.

The police officer then went on to tell me : "I'm sorry to inform you but your daughter passed away this afternoon" This was the Friday of the Thanksgiving weekend here in Canada. I was told that being a long weekend the coroner probably wouldn't call until Tuesday so just 'spend time with family now, because not much can be done until Tuesday'. Since that day, what have I accomplished. Choosing the funeral director Choosing cemetery. Choosing a casket. Choosing to have open casket pior to the service Choosing to then go to the cemetery for the burial Choosing to have open house following the burial at my home Signed off on a 10,000.00 bill Got the date picked by confirming that my son can get time off from school Confirmed that the date wo
