When your heart’s breaking
Writing is therapeutic
Pour tears through your pen

Through your broken heart
You may not have a plan
But it helps to vent

A friend brought flowers
Weeping hearts to match my own
Hugs and prayers to heal
Another friend brought
A loving white weeping heart
To soothe my sad soul
He planted the hearts
In the ground near our front door
Owen’s reminder
Owen brought great joy
His death was a tragic thing
I am still in shock
Jumped through the window
While attached to a choke leash
Owen hung himself
Before Owen died
He had a wonderful day
Tumbling with Zeke
Do you have a pet?
If so, cherish him or her
I am sure you do.
Thank you for reading
My heartfelt but sad ramblings
Writing brings relief
With the help of friends
We are smiling through our pain
God bless you, my friends
Love,
JanBeek
(and Bob)

Nat king Cole sang a Wonderful song about heartache. In it, he says smile, though your heart is aching, smile while your heart is breaking. Owen will live on, in our hearts and our memories.
Smile though your heart is aching
Smile even though it’s breaking
When there are clouds in the sky, you’ll get by
If you smile through your fear and sorrow
Smile and maybe tomorrow
You’ll see the sun come shining through for you
Light up your face with gladness
Hide every trace of sadness
Although a tear may be ever so near
That’s the time you must keep on trying
Smile, what’s the use of crying?
You’ll find that life is still worthwhile
If you just smile
That’s the time you must keep on trying
Smile, what’s the use of crying?
You’ll find that life is still worthwhile
If you just smile
Thank you for the reminder. I love Nat King Cole and that song πΆ β€οΈ
