A Life Alone

(Source: Maisie Crow)

Tom Rose lives in the same house he purchased as a newlywed 63 years ago.  There's one exception -- he now sleeps downstairs alone.   

NY-based photographer, Maisie Crow, captures Tom's heartbreaking transition after the loss of his wife.  

Maisie's images are powerful.  Tom's words are unabashedly raw.  Together, they tell a story of life, loss and the all-encompassing nature of life-long companionship. 

I carry your heart with me (I carry it in my heart)I am never without it (anywhere
I go you go,my dear; and whatever is done by only me is your doing,my darling)

- e.e. cummings
