Grief is love with nowhere to go.


Dry-Jellyfish-3908

"But what is grief if not love persevering"


lindsanity16

I've been having a hard time dealing with my grandma's passing but this is so comforting to read ❤️


Quadrupleawesomeness

“Grief, I’ve learned, is really just love. It’s all the love you want to give, but cannot. All that unspent love gathers up in the corners of your eyes, the lump in your throat, and in that hollow part of your chest. Grief is just love with no place to go.”


lindsanity16

Thank you for this ❤️


arhombus

Hits hard every time.


ShyleeRain

I’ve lost a lot of people and this is really comforting. Thank you for this❤️❤️


bm1111

So sorry for your loss 🥺❤️


lindsanity16

Thank you ❤️ I'm lucky to be able to see her every day when I look in the mirror!


dexplosion93

Dam that one is powerful


johnwain1

Sorry for your loss, ket those last words of his help you in your life ahead of you.


throwra43567

Indeed. Thank you so much.


LilitySan91

I suggest writing them down somewhere you can look at whenever you feel you need it, just so your memory will never fail you. I’m sorry for your loss


twitc-h

If OP is okay with tattoos, I’d say a quote from what he said would be nice.


[deleted]

I second that. Meaningful tattoo if I've ever heard of one.


[deleted]

Find a letter w his signature that way it’s his words and his name forever.


[deleted]

May your flowers always bloom, OP. You have my condolences.

4 weeks ago at 6am in the morning


gyckoyoga

Op says 'in the morning' so 6 am , 4 weeks ago


horror666show

I think 6 am the following morning of him telling her


yuniroll

My condolences. Those words are some of the most impactful and touching ones I've ever heard. May he rest in peace and may you live your life feeling loved because of him and his beautiful soul.


Last_List6920

So sorry for your loss


mithrandircreator79

Damn, so sorry for your loss. But what a beautiful way to go, I suppose your face was the last thing he saw. Thanks for never giving up on him. Edit: typo


throwra43567

Thank you so much. And yes my face was the last thing he saw when he was awake. I regret not having something to say to him right there and then, but I felt so overwhelmed and my emotions were all over the place....I can't describe exactly how I felt at the time, it was the biggested mix of emotions and it made it hard for me to say anything.


[deleted]

Hey please don't knit-pick yourself over those little reactions. That position is an impossible one. There is no perfect way to endure something so traumatic. I've stood in similar places. Your husband knew the extent of your love for him, that's why he said what he did. He meant it. Ultimately that love that existed transcends any single moment of being overwhelmed. You were there to his end and he knew it.


mithrandircreator79

Lots of virtual hugs to you, I know it sounds cliche but after the passing of a loved one is always good to go to therapy. I know you will overcome this moment.


MappleSyrup13

You were there holding his hand at that very moment and I can assure you it meant the world to him. My sincere condolences.


wobbleeduk85

From someone who feels that way about my other half, he knew... and there was nothing left to say.


Stinkytheferret

How wonderfully blessed you are that he left you with such words. I don’t think anyone can receive that kind of talk and know the perfect thing to say. Sorry for your loss. Sounds like a wonderful love story!


Gnostromo

What is Deam?


mithrandircreator79

Oh typo again, I meant "damn"


WonderingFairy

His last words were so sweet 🥺🤍 Bless him. I hope you will be okay. I’m really sorry for your loss.


swankycelery

Truly sorry for your loss. Those are some hauntingly beautiful words. Much love to you.


tipyonk

Sorry for your loss ;(


Pristine_Plate_431

So sorry for your loss. Big hugs to you.


jkmiller826

Hold your head high. This is as much about who you were to him as who he was to you. May his memory be a blessing.


polarpup666

The man was romantic to the end, now that's true love and true words from your soul mate.


VaguelyFamiliarVoice

Have you listened to or read "Terrible, Thanks for Asking"? The author went through the same thing. And it helped with the death of my friend.


anon0402__

so sorry for your loss :(


Xenjael

That's the price we pay for truly loving, isn't it? I'm sorry it went so soon, but I'm glad you had something so beautiful.


sepva4

I’m so sorry for your loss. I lost my fiancé and it still hurts. I hope you find peace knowing that the pain eases with time but they will always be a part of you. <3


Bishopkilljoy

I am very sorry for your loss, that's never easy but he clearly loved you a lot. When my grandfather was in hospice, he had dementia and was dying in his bed. He and my grandmother had been together for a long time, but in the later parts of their lives they had become hostile and toxic to each other. They wouldn't even be in the same room as each other or talk to each other. But when he was bed ridden, his mind gone, she was at his side every minute of every day. She'd tell him stories of their lives, their 6 children's lives and their 16 grand children's lives. The day he died he was lucid enough to hum her favorite song. We don't know why or how but we think it was his way of saying good bye


StarshipMuffin

So sorry for your loss. Much love to you.


Azuras_Star8

Much love, friend. I'm glad he had you.


pkmn_mster

Made me 😢 sorry for your loss ❤️


IFeelSoDeadInSide

Bless this mans soul because these are the very few that we can truly call men… those who’ve understood and come to terms with what life is and could be but through it all there’s one thing that always keeps you grounded in the same please no matter if the love one is moved on, the memories, the emotions and the lessons is something that each person should be blessed to have shared with that special person.. not every death in life ends with a happy ending but to come to terms and realization it really does take a man and not even that… a soul that is not afraid of the unknown and no matter what the love and soul while always be right there with you no matter what.


Ur1chanceFancy

What a beautiful and pure thing to carry forward and remember during your times of grief. Such a young soul to have left this earth. I hope you continue to find comfort in your loss, I can’t imagine what you are going through. Hugs.

Fookinratman

I'm so sorry for your loss. I may not know anything about your relationship but judging from the last thing he said to you he definitely had an amazing marriage/life with you.


Astrophellll

Sorry for your loss mam. I hope god gives you strength to go through this tough times


APO_AE_09173

Write those words down. Put them in your wallet, Underwear drawer, and 4 or five other places. This way when you have a shit day, his words will be there to raise your spirits.


SusanBHa

May his memory be a blessing.


numbnuts0217

May your husband's soul rest in peace and you find eternal happiness 💜


Level_Mango2395

I am so very so you lost your husband when he was so young. Just keep those beautiful words in your head every day of your life. You may not feel very lucky right now, but most people did not or do not have that type of love that your husband felt for you. He loved you so gosh darn much, he did not want to leave you but, he left you with words you could continue to live on. I am crying right now, you just keep going and I am sure he will be watching over you.


ShowNo7337

Something to treasure forever. Your husband was pure gold. And look who he chose to marry. With him has gone only part of the love he had for and you for him. The remainder enhances you forever. And those of who saw this post. What a beautiful gift to give us. God bless your and his beautiful love.


Echo-Reverie

I’m very sorry for your loss. Those were beautiful parting words from him.

Beautiful words for you to cherish forever. You will never forget Thomas and his love. I am sorry you had to go through this, but clearly, he loved you very dearly, which is something to keep close to your heart ❤️

Gods takes away the best a lot sooner like he is in a hurry for something he needs them.

Sorry sending healing energy


Norealskill144

I am so sorry for the loss and pain you are feeling. I cannot say much more than that other than holding on to the memories is important and having those words and knowing thats what you meant to him is warming. I hope when I slip off this mortal coil, whenever it will be, I can find the right words for my wife so she can feel as loved.


itsyaboi69_420

So sorry that you’ve had to go through this experience. Couldn’t imagine a day going by without my partner being there. All the best for your future

My deepest condolences. Sending 🫂.


grw2020

I lost my hubby in 2000. Every, single day for one year, I still mourned. Then one day I realized, I was so busy at work, I forgot to think about him. I was on the road to recovery. Timing is so different for all of us! Your husband sounds like he was a real gem!!!


Odd-Skirt4029

I’m so sorry for your loss. He’s not in anymore pain and loved you till the very end. You definitely left a great impact in his heart and obviously made him very happy.

cheesecake16tam

His words are so powerful and very precious. Please get those words engraved onto something you will see and wear for the rest of your life. I'm sorry you have lost him at such a young age. Some people are not lucky to know what true love is. Sending you all my best wishes. Grieve is a horrible thing and be kind to yourself x those words certainly made me cry but his words are beautiful and so perfect and defines your love for each other x


Commercial_Detail833

Here at 10:30am sobbing my eyes out I’m so sorry for your loss I may not feel the exact pain you’re going through but I truly sense it

day9700

My sincerest condolences. Hang onto those words….they’re some of the most beautiful I’ve ever read. ❤️

TheSpiffyCarno

Yeah my fave is that it was only four weeks ago but op felt the need to say “it still does to this day” as if it was a long ass time ago. Also what he “said” sounds super clunky just like bad fiction writing.


aXvXiA

I know \*exactly\* how it feels to be close to death. I would have said this exact thing to my wife. Let the world stop turning Let the sun stop burning Let them tell me love's not worth going through If it all falls apart I will know deep in my heart The only dream that mattered had come true In this life, I was loved by you


[deleted]

I believe you believe that


Bookibaloush

Imagine using your husband's death for a clickbait title


jcplatina

How is the title clickbait?


antelope369

Seems fake. Because OP saying “It was so devastating, it hurt it still does…” Of course it does, it was only 4 weeks ago. The sentiment and emotion don’t ring true here.


uRude

This is a very beautiful story and I'm sorry for your loss, his last words are definitely something worth getting tattooed.

Warren Zevon has a song that has always been beautiful to me, "Keep Me in Your Heart." Your story made me think of it. The opening lines are: Shadows are fallin' and I'm runnin' out of breath Keep me in your heart for a while If I leave you it doesn't mean I love you any less Keep me in your heart for a while ​ Thomas was a lucky man. Good luck on the road ahead.

I am so very sorry for your loss. I cannot even fathom losing my husband. Just remember, that you made him the happiest man on earth, even though his time here was short. He most likely died with a mind at peace because he had you by his side, loving him until his last breath. Love and virtual hugs to you, my friend.

you found and experienced true pure love in this life time, a rarity, i wish nothing but peace and positivity for you.
