At ease, but at peace?

I am slowly,
Getting used to being in the house without him.
Sleeping gets a little easier each night.

The only thing is,
I wish I could teleport my family over some times.
Not because of the things they say,
Or the food mom cooks,
Neither is it about sister's wits,
Nor daddy's wise words.

But just because of the comfort,
they provide by just being there.

The silence is peaceful,
calming.
completing.

The silence now, is quite different.
Oh well, I guess I'd have to rely on the TV and iTunes for now.
Until the day, the silence becomes... comforting.

Anonymous: I suppose, everyone has gone through heartache and heartbreak at some stage.

But hey, we're all still here alive and well at the end of it.

So it just goes to show, no matter how painful - life goes on.

You'll be fine. You are way too attractive to be suffering as such.
