Flowers now grow over her grave. They are daisies, her favorite. They are what I remember her by, the one last thing she gave to me.
Tears filled my eyes. I could feel them streaming down my face, but I paid no attention to them.
I sat by her grave for hours telling her the stories and the rest of the things that I wanted to tell her before she died.
She did not listen. She was gone.
I continued talking to her, and even though she wasn’t listening, I felt better inside.
A smile crept over my face as I continued talking, telling her all that had happened ever since she left.
Oh, how I wish I could relive that moment. I felt an overwhelming sense of warmth and joy course through me in those few hours that I spent with her.
All I could think of was her face, the peaceful expression she wore before she died. It’s as if she knew she was going to a better place.
Those haunting memories that I used to have were gone, washed away. I accepted the fact that she left us.
I got up, the smile still on my face, and stared at the daisies.
I realized something in those last few seconds I was by her grave. No one is too far gone.
