When my husband first died I became obsessed with wanting time to fly so the pain I felt would stop, but what I now realize is the longer you go without seeing a loved one the more you ache for their presence.
That's exactly what this poem is saying - that even avoiding things you've shared doesn't help because his absence is preset everywhere. This poem is equal to Huxley's "Stop all the clocks" for a powerful description of loss and the conviction that "nothing now can come to any good".
