Lost But Never Gone

My friend lost her beloved husband yesterday. It was so sudden and I am still shocked by the news. When I saw her yesterday, she said "I don't know how to live right now...". That broke my heart.

I can only imagine what she is feeling right now. I thought it was the end of the world when the guy I really loved left me for someone else, but to have lost your dearest husband, your life partner, your bestfriend, the love of your life... I think the sorrow is much greater.

If I remember correctly, they were married for 4 years. Yes, it was such a short time but I am sure it was full with happy and loving memories. I hope those memories could help my friend smile, even for a little. And I hope that those memories will help remind my friend that her husband will always stay in her mind and her heart and that those memories will give her strength to live her life day by day. He is lost but never gone.

"Tears In Heaven" - Eric Clapton

Would you know my name
If I saw you in heaven?
Would it be the same
If I saw you in heaven?

I must be strong
And carry on,
'Cause I know I don't belong
Here in heaven.

Would you hold my hand
If I saw you in heaven?
Would you help me stand
If I saw you in heaven?

I'll find my way
Through night and day,
'Cause I know I just can't stay
Here in heaven.

Time can bring you down,
Time can bend your knees.
Time can break your heart,
Have you begging please, begging please.

Beyond the door,
There's peace I'm sure,
And I know there'll be no more
Tears in heaven.

Would you know my name
If I saw you in heaven?
Would it be the same
If I saw you in heaven?

I must be strong
And carry on,
'Cause I know I don't belong
Here in heaven.
