Five Years ...

It's been five years.

Five years since I last saw your face.  Five years since I last heard your laugh.  Five years since I last hugged you.  Five years since I last said good night.  Five years since I sat next to you on your bed, held your hand, and watched you take your last breath.

Not a single day in the last five years has passed that I haven't thought of you.  In a sense it seems like it was only yesterday, but in another it feels like forever has passed.

Five years ago today I lost my mother, my hero, my best friend.

Pain.  Anger.  Sadness.  Tears.

I miss you more today than five years ago.

Thankful for our memories;
