Knocking on Heaven's Door

Artist Unknown

Nothing lives forever. Nothing lives forever. Nothing lives forever...

My love does.

I lost a few loves of my life in a short period of time, and I thought losing my dad was the most painful death I ever had to process. While it was unique, this new wave of grief is hitting different.
When I prayed for a different life, I never wanted to lose the ones that make life worth living.  I thought I made that clear, but I also have faith that things happen exactly as they should.  I can't control what I had no control over in creating.

What now?
What do I do now?

I think of everyone that I still have, and they all have other people.  I lost my pack.  My tribe. The ones I was responsible for. MY BABIES!

What now?
What do I do now?

My entire schedule revolved around the loves of my life, and now I just exist.

What is my purpose?

Who needs the amount of nurturing that I have in me?  Who can I mother? Who can I smother with limitless affection that will not think that I am attempting to overwhelm them with my overflowing love?

I guess I need it.  I guess I need me. I know I need God and the guidance of my creator because if this is life, I want to go home.  

I hope that they answer the door for me, Lord knows I miss them.
