I never understood the true meaning of grief Until that moment I saw you slip away. It grabbed at my heart & tore it to shreds As I still held your hand in mine.

🕯 Ms Jenna Tennant lit a candle Three months today since you slipped away. Not a day goes by I don't think of you. Your loss still hurts. My heart still aches. But there's nothing I can do. I know you're there. I know you're near. Watching over me. But I miss your hugs. I miss your laugh. Nothing is the same as it used to be.
