Lost

People will often say they “lost” someone when they die. It’s our way of softening the uncomfortable conversation of a loved one’s death. True be told, it is the living who are lost. For 3 years I’ve felt lost and have not come to peace that you’re not here. There are so many talks and memories we have lost in that time. I know you’re in heaven and one day we’ll catch up on those lost moments. I love you, pop.

when I say I Love you more

We would always say to each other "Love you More" and what we were truly saying to each other was that through any and everything we would still love each other more, not that I would love him more than he loved me, or he would love me more than i loved him. But it meant that through bad days, disagreements, and heartaches of loss, or the distance between us no obstacle could come between our love.
