Your Dying Spouse 594 - Oh, CRAP!

I can see where it might get easy to start feeling hopeless.

A couple more lumps in really bad places, and fatigue that seems to increase by the day. It's Monday, and I can't do what I still could on Thurday last.

What's proof against hopelessness, and the antidote to despair?

I don't know.

It's just to keep hoping, I guess, and to decide not to despair.

I don't know how to face

this, no 'coping' works this time

and how on earth does one embrace

this demon from a pantomime?

There are bad things growing

and there is room for sorrow

because of the dread knowing

that soon, there's no tomorrow.

I suppose I should be afraid

but now I'm just too tired

for that, too tired for the plans I've made

and for all I once desired.

But you know, it doesn't really matter;

this iron heart will never shatter.

Music from Celine Dion, with My Heart Will Go On. I mean, why not? It's a nice song.

Friends are everything. I couldn't have done it.
