Not Yet ...

Who am I now?
I still stand, Alone- and yet not.
Married, together, yes, but parted.
Providing care, providing service.
She knows not who I am, from day to day.
She knows not her children nor siblings.
She knows not her years.

I remember for me.
I remember when she still WAS.
I remember for her-
When she cannot.

Who am I with her?
Who am I without her?
My heart knows her name-
Alone.

My mother-in-law passed away at the end of July.

My father-in-law was devastated since he no longer had someone to take care of.

I don't know which was worse for him.
