This is Us ..

Neville

 

This is Us ..

 

Your pain my

love

quite simply

hurts me

far too much ..

I can not

bear to feel

you suffer so ..

When

you burn,

I do blister

and when you

bleed

my heart,

then

I bleed too ..

Indeed,

this ache we

share is

all consuming ..

Who

passes first

I fear,

shall never

let the other go ..

    You can feel the pain of your loved ones. Me? I don't care about KP's pain. She brought it all on herself - the pain of botox going saggy! lol.

    • Neville



      I bet she wishes that your fur and your beard both grow backwards and choke you

        I'm a furry guinea-pig friend to all and sundry - except to KP! lol.

        Oh yes, you can always feel your spouses pain. And the end is a thought we must not think about too much or we'll go mad--who will pass first?

            Ha .. I guess so, I can hardly remember that far back .. 💜

            That is the sweetest and most painful thing.... who goes first can be such a pain. A contemporary film captures this scene: The Notebook; where the couple expire together atop the hospital bed.

              I shall check that out CB .. in the meantime, I shall thank you, for checking in .. Neville

                This is beautiful and real. It hit me like a gut punch, the last two lines especially. It's difficult to deal with and harder, I imagine, to write about it. I have no more to say except I hope you all find the peace you seek. - Phil A.

                  I am well and truly both blown away and honoured Phil .. HUGE thanks my friend & truly .. Neville

                  My dear Nev, such sadness in such beauty, I have a great friend who literally went through this, it fathoms me how he did it with such dignity but he did. A stunning capture of soulmates and Indeed many other types of love, when I was really young it's what I felt about my mother. ❤️

                    My very dearest of Teddy's .. I am both honestly honoured and humbled that you should regard my little scribble so highly .. Thank you so much .. Neville ❣️

                    I read this, Neville, and failing to find the words, I read it again, and still failed. I am mightily impressed how you find words so hard to find.

                    This write stays with me. It hits hard sir. 🙏🏼

                    • Neville



                      I am mightily honoured and near struck dumb Garth, but am, besides being flabbergasted both honoured and humbled kind sir .. thank you so much my friend .. Neville

                    • Bobby O

                      A forever testimony that is a credi owned and assumed by both

                      • Neville



                        there ya go, spoiling me again with kindness .. bless you Bobby O
