My heart is sore pained within me...
Fearfulness and trembling are come
upon me, and horror hath overwhelmed
me. And I said, Oh, that I had wings
like a dove! for then would I fly away,
and be at rest. Psalms 55:4-5
29 November 2000
The calendar declares that a full year has now
passed since we were last together on this earth.
Since that fateful day, I have lived outside of time,
on the fringes of life itself. The life we shared
together is now in ashes and al that remains of
my reality is our two precious sons.
I know not how I have existed as I barely
remember one moment from the next. One year,
one month, one day, one moment, each is unbearable
without you. We truly were of one flesh, and now
I am left with open wounds which will not heal.
Joy and happiness had been mine in abundance,
while now they are a mere glint of memory.
If I have experienced any joy, it has only
been in the knowledge that I have spared you
from ever having to endure this agoney!
Your soul is free and all your tears have been
wiped away while my own tears continue to
flow unabated. Words in this situation are
meaningless, you know what is in my
heart. I will face tomorrow no stronger, wiser
or better equipped that I have endured any of
the last 365 days. I merely exist and try and
wait for the inevitable...until we meet again.
I love you, my Bassim, now and forever,
Your Madeleine

we must each
say good-bye
to life,
.......but never
to Love!
