When A Heart Breaks

Yesterday all my troubles seemed so far away

Now it looks as like they're here to stay

oh I believe in Yesterday.

Yes, it does seem like Yesterday, but indeed today

marks 10 years. 

10 years?

How?

Where did the time go?

I spent some time,

just recently, 

going through the entire postings

from late July 2013 until

the end of August 2013.

I haven't ever done that.

I have to confess,

I wasn't able to go through 

every post even now.

You know my dearest Abby, 

you are never far away in my thoughts.

I miss you just as much this day, as I did the moment your spirit

left your body in my arms.

And there are moments when I still have that gut punch and I 

feel the tremendous loss of you all over again,

but those moments are fewer and far between.

You taught me so much over these past ten years.

You helped me let Gracie go with the understanding it was

best for her rather than fighting a losing battle.

I learned from you that Jinx would tell me in his own

way that it was time to depart and I gave him his wish.

And finally Ping...oh Ping what a guy he was.

You taught me about Grief and Unconditional Love.

So many lessons. Many I'm still learning.

Boo is not far behind all of you, and although she is doing

well for now, I know her time is short.

Then you all will be together again, the Fab Five.

Which will be another big moment in my life.

I know that I need no words to tell you this, because from

my heart to yours there is no need of words.

But I began this blog for you, and I kept it going after you left,

for a while at least. Until it became too hard to keep going.

Wait for me my special one.

Wait for me just up ahead.

One day will be my day to join you.

I can't wait to see you reach up

and put your paws around my neck

like you used to do, so many years ago.

I love you, Abby.

I love you more than stars in the sky,

and water in the oceans.

I love you beyond this universe.

Into that great beyond,

and by God,

I will be with you there

one day.

💗💗💗

I love you to the Moon 🌙

and back

again🌟

and again 

🌙and again.

💜💜💜
