Prayer for My Dead Lover, Born 1967 Died Dec. 1, 2024
She loved many in her time
but I was her last love in this life.
She will forever be my timeless love.
And though she is now nothing more than ash,
the love she ignited within me will burn until my death.
but I was her last love in this life.
She will forever be my timeless love.
And though she is now nothing more than ash,
the love she ignited within me will burn until my death.

I spoke this short "prayer" at Janet's service. She would be pleased for me to share this photo.

The author encourages honest critique.
Not even 60, judging by her life dates. Like the mixing of burning terms in the sentence:
And though she is now nothing more than ash, the love she ignited within me will burn until my death.
Did she leave relatives who came to the funeral? It would be a brave thing to say, I would have thought.
