💔

On Saturday, I unexpectedly had to say goodbye to my best friend and soul mate for the last almost-20 years. She knew it was her time. She came and got me, and I stayed with her until the end. I told her if she needed to go that she was free to go, and she didn't need to hold on for me. She put her forehead to mine, and I knew it was time.

 

It all just seems too cruel to be real. She was such a pure being who gave so much and asked for so little. My chest is so heavy, I feel like I can't breathe. I don't know how I am expected to go the rest of my life without her.
