love,joy and pain
I am sitting here at night looking at the picture of Shona and I on our world. MY life is gone. My love is gone. My angel is gone. Six month of love and joy, then she was taken from me. I am alone again and the pain is worst at night. The day she left this world is etched on my memory. We were at a meeting and telling all and sundry about the divine message of love and compassion. Now most of the people were down and outs. At the end they would have a hot meal to see them on their way. We went out of the door, I shivered in the chilly night air. I huddled inside my coat and took Shona's hand as we started to walk. The sound of the screeching tyres sounded loud in the night air. I looked behind me and saw a car on the pavement coming towards us. "Shona!" I cried as I sailed through the air. I crawled towards Shona. Her mangled, bloodied body lifeless on the ground. I held her hand and cried. "Shona! Don't die, don't leave me." Her eyes fluttered open. "I love you Raphael, finish our work for me," she mouthed. "I love you Shona." "I know,"she said. "Don't leave me," I sobbed "Thank you for your love and joy. See you at home," she said. "And so, here I am in my room, sitting in a chair and looking at the picture. Every night, the pain comes harder than the night before. I can't bear this pain much longer, I have known so much love and joy. My life is gone. My love is gone. My angel is gone. 24258210
