I lost my husband of 1 year & 4 months
The pain is beyond words but
I am holding on to one hour at a time
sometimes a minute
...each day it is work
to put one foot in front of me.
God helps me daily
friends encourage me
some offer a hug or a prayer
& without I would not be here
to say thank you..!
If I do not speak much it is because
I do not want to talk about it
Give me time, let me heal..
and read the words of a person
who understood friendship
in the words below.........
I can't give solutions to all of
life's problems, doubts, or fears.
But I can listen to you and
together we will search for answers.
I can't change your past
with all its heartache and pain,
nor the future with its untold stories.
But I can be there now
when you need me to care.
I can't keep your
feet from stumbling.
I can only offer my hand
that you may grasp it and not fall.
Your joys, triumphs, success,
and happiness are not mine;
Yet I can share in your laughter.
Your decisions in life
are not mine to make, nor to judge;
I can only support you, encourage you,
and help you when you ask.
I can't prevent you from
falling away from friendship,
from your values, from me.
I can only pray for you,
talk to you, and wait for you.
I can't give you boundaries
which I have determined for you,
But I can give you
the room to change,
room to grow,
room to be yourself.
I can't keep your heart
from breaking and hurting,
But I can cry with you
and help you pick up the pieces
and put them back in place.
I can't tell you who you are,
I can only love you and be your friend.
