Now it has happened
That third time,
That third and final time.
My love has now departed,
Departed permanently
From this earth.
I lost her first to dementia,
Then her Spirit left her body,
Now her body is gone.
But the celebration was there,
The celebration of her life.
So many friends,
So many kind words
As we all said good bye to her.
The love of my life
Has now left this world,
But she has not left me,
Her soul is still within me
As our love will never die.
I will be with her one day
And we will go on together,
Go to eternity.
Hand in hand,
Soul in soul,
Guided by our love,
Our profound love for each other.
