I still feel your warmth, your essence clinging to the air like your favorite perfume. Your heartbeat resonates with mine—alive, vibrant, and intertwined. Although the world around me has flipped upside down, our connection remains unchanged. My soul yearns for you in the quiet hours of the night. “Lila. Lila. Lila. Come back to me.”
I’ve sought solace in countless glasses of red wine, whispered prayers, and rivers of tears. I searched for a way forward and alternatives to cope, but here I am, standing strong. Through this journey of darkness, I’ve unearthed some invaluable truths:
- Life can pivot in a single heartbeat.
- Grief is a living entity; it’s born but never truly leaves.
- Those who claim it gets easier? They really don’t understand.
- Unexpected angels appear just when you need them most.
- Your true friends will stick by you no matter how chaotic you become.
- Your weakest moments can transform into your greatest strengths.
- Darkness is real.
- And so is a higher power.
- Writing your truth can be a lifeline.
- There’s a profound space within you meant for mourning.
- Anyone who belittles or undermines you? That’s an abuser. No doubt.
- Trust your gut when it feels uneasy; it’s usually right.
- People rarely change; past actions are usually a clear indicator of future behavior. Believe them the first time.
- No one will ever know or accept you like you.
- The sun shines differently now that you’re gone.
- Domestic abuse isn’t just physical; it can cut deeper with words.
- It’s entirely possible to cry for years without respite.
- Our suffering can shape our purpose.
- Life continues on, even when you feel lost.
- True peace comes not from the world but from within.
- You can wear a mask of smiles and bright lipstick, fooling everyone, yet still feel broken inside.
My dear friend, sister, and soulmate was taken from me by someone named Aaron Miller on a fateful day in 2010. Everything changed; the sun felt dimmer, and the universe seemed less vibrant, but I’m still here, surrounded by love and memories of you, Lila. Forever in my heart.
