My husband died in a fire.
No one can know my sorrow.
My love is gone.
My dearest friend is gone.
Yet I feel him near me.
Sometimes I can almost see him.
At night, when the wind blows, I think of what might have been.
Again, I wonder why?
When I see a fire, I feel my anger rising.
This was not a friendly fire.
This was not a forest fire.
It was a fire in the woods.
This is all I am permitted to say.
