Falling to Pieces
Power
The reality of my fate fell over me as I said these words:
“Love cannot stop death.”
He looked at me helplessly and in pain. I hated that I was the one causing him pain, but there was simply nothing I could do. I could not lie to him, he would surely find out eventually.
“And why can’t it?” he demanded.
It was a question I often thought about, yet I had a realization of the concept. However, now all my logic seemed to vanish. With a love so powerful that it brought me hope, how could it not stop death? Kyle had said that God loved us and wanted the very best for us, if that were true why would He take Joel away from me?
I felt the tears fall slowly from my red and sore eyes.
“Because it isn’t that powerful,” I whispered.
And again I saw the raw pain I caused him. I felt his arms around me, yet felt no security this time. I felt as though I was falling apart.
Like I was falling to pieces.
