When I say I am sorry for your loss
It may sound perfunctory
Trite even.
But what I mean is
I am sorry
that you wake in the night gasping for breath,
heart racing in agony.
I am sorry
that you will know a liftetime
of what ifs and could have beens.
I am sorry
that you ache for one more minute with your love,
knowing it can never be.
When I say I am sorry for your loss,
please know that my soul is reaching out to yours
in understanding and trying very hard to take away
just one little ounce of your pain.
Donna Ashworth ‘Loss’
