My dad was in WW2 navy. He went to war at 17. His time was mostly spent in south China seas. He almost died of yellow fever, a blast on the ship, that till he died hurt him. Never complained about it, always said it was his duty and do it again. He was so proud of being of being in the navy.
I cannot imagine what he went through. He was gone from his family 4 years. While at sea he got word his dad died. Took him 3 months to get home. My dad died suddenly & buried with full honors at a veterans cemetery. It was one of the hardest days of my life. My strong navy dad gone. 20 yrs later I go & talk to him. He wanted to lie with others that had served. I am so proud my dad served in the navy at a time of war. He loved this country, always had a flag pole with American flag in front of his home. I wish this country would honor and care for its veterans better. Dad loved the navy & this country till day he died. God speed Daddy
Beautifully written, as usual. I would definitely 'be grieved by your leaving'!
Love and very best wishes, Ann.
Thank you, Ann. Your words are like sunshine to a poet's heart -- I'm grateful you felt the message.
I lost my twin brother as well, I died that day as well. I believe twins share one soul. I felt / feel broken and incomplete, like half my soul is gone and is in constant search for the missing half. I tried committing suicide after, with sleeping pills, enough to kill 6 people, but survived. I lost my will to live, I felt like a zombie, alive but not living. I felt like a fish out of water gasping for breath. The hardest part is I lost my sense of self and identity. I chose to live for my parents, even though I ache inside, no one truly understands what I lost when my twin brother died. I know I'll never feel whole or complete again until I die and my soul is reunited with my twins. It's literally all my body wants.

Hate to tell you Hun but if he keeps dating other girls, then either 1. He is not into you or 2. Is not sure you exist therefore has no clue how you feel. Good luck hope it all worked out for you at the end of the day!
