Amy wrote me this poem soon after Charles passed away.
Yesterday there was us,
we sat and thought,
we could escape the impossible,
and tackle the worst.
Yesterday there was us,
and I knew who I was,
the future was bright,
and dreams reachable.
Yesterday there was us,
but today there's me,
a cupful of memories,
and a "little you" remains.
Today, I'll be strong,
there will be a day I see you again,
tomorrow is uncertain,
but I pray God,
you will keep us safe.
Because yesterday there was us,
today there's only me,
and tomorrow can only bring me one day closer to you.
Thank you Amy! You were so wonderful after Charles passed away. I honestly do not think I would have made it through those first few months without you!
