Love and Accept

Death teaches us to love and accept.

We are all forced to learn this lesson while we love and watch the people we love slip out of life.

I watched the nurturer of my existence slip away cold

We always ask why

But there is never an answer satisfactory enough

She hung in her own desperation for a way out

The person I loved the most voluntarily left

Why?

When someone we love goes some part of us leaves with them

I have spent years trying to get that part back

So much despair, disappointment, and desertedness

Life, love, and death they have so much in common:happiness, struggle, pain, hope, loneliness, confusion  

The hardest part is moving on, and some of us don't.

But we are forced to accept it no matter what.

So love and accept
