I am hoping

[medeine]

with every breath of belief that I can muster

that the last 8 months or so (and especially the last 18 hours) have all been a dream.

Otherwise, the blood pouring out of my broken heart ain't gonna last for long.

I'm sorry for your pain, I am. But I know somewhere in you is the desire to simply see what will come out the other side of this...what might be shed or gained.

It's all a dream, darlin'. All of it, all the time. Like all dreams, when you wake, you'll have the chance to see the lesson and dismiss the pain.
Until then, curl up and cry when you can, get up and move on when you must.

I heard a song years ago, that I like to remember when I think of broken hearts:

Hearts cannot be broken,
they're small squishy things
They don't break like glass
but they bruise easily
