Hole in My Broken Heart

2006 was not a good year. I wanted to do a wrap up of it here, but it was while looking back that I realized how painful it was. The crystallizing moment was the death of my Grandfather. When he took ill and was rushed to the hospital in March I figured that was it. He hung on until June. I did not plan to watch him die. Rushing from work to get to his bedside 15 minutes before he took his last breath was both something I was glad I was there for and something I really wanted to miss. His absence has created a hole in my heart that time has not healed yet.

So I was more than happy that 2007 dawned. A new year! A fresh start! No more tears or hurt from people who I love and have bared my soul to.

It was nice while it lasted. Twenty-two hours into the New Year I found myself with a broken heart. This one from a person who led me to believe he wanted what I wanted. "I love you, but.." has to be the cruelest phrase in the English language. Thanks for finally letting me know.

I sincerely hope you find what you’re looking for.
