~ terrifying and unexpected ~

Why?!

I don’t know why it happened,
but it did...
Out of nowhere
came this thought
of you dying.
Being told on the phone
through tears and gasps for air...
Not just now,
but days ago.
Suddenly,
my world stopped...
again.
My heart shattered
a second time.

I'm sorry for your grief. The departed, I think, would not want your life to come to a stop, but would want you to continue on, with your good memories of them keeping you warm company.
