How hard
would it be
I wondered when I
thought about having to finally
put you down, something I’d tried
all our lives to keep from happening
And now I held you in my own arms
as you lay there in your bag of ashes
trying to ready myself to put you down for good

So sad! How would we ever really ready ourselves for these moments?
This completely broke my heart! To release a loved one that last time is amongst the most difficult things.
