I miss my dad

Im too sad to sleep Im too sad to stay awake.
Im too sad to feel a smile Im too sad to fake a laugh
I didnt think id feel this way. We knew it was time... I just thought id be more ok since We knew.
It was like I dropped off the top of a roller-coaster with no warning Nothing to hold on to.
Dropped into the ocean Gasping for air and a hand hold.
Now im sitting here stuck in the middle of the ocean With a bodv.
Alone
Everyone else seems to be ok. Mavbe its still shock. Maybe its relief
I feel like woke from a coma And evervone is expecting me to Remember how to
walk Talk And eat.
Feel the emotions they say. Yeah I feel them so deep
I feel like im going to throw up my soul.
So deep My body aches from the mental exhaustion.
My tears burn my cheeks The salt chaps my lips
Im going to float into space when mom dies. Im being held to the earth but one arm and one leg

Sarah I know how you feel. WE collect my wife's ashes (65years married) tomorrow
we were told that she had lung cancer 18 months back _ I was scared of her chocking for breath.
In the end it was quick and painless.
please don't be alone, there are people out there who can help
try the nurses
She became unable to move - we had problems getting an ambulance > we went in with lights & sirens
We sat by her bed for s whole week > they found she had contracted COVID

Please don't be alone there are people out there who can help >> The nurses - your doctor - The Samaritans

Please reach out to them by telephone .
Call me back if you wish > but i may cry with you
