Just For Me.

Goldfinch60



That love between us was so strong,

Each day it became stronger,

A love that would go on forever.

Then came the day,

That dreadful day when she passed,

Passed into a new world.

A world where we would meet

And go on together for eternity.

That day will come,

But not yet.

So as I live my life alone

I am learning,

Learning not to live without her,

But learning to live with the love,

The love that she left behind,

That love she has left for me,

Just for me.

    A poignant write Gold.
    Half the year gone, meaning six months since C......... and six months before next C.......
    I dare not mention the C word yet. We'll get the C catalogues soon through our door. Clue: 9 letters in it. Or 4 letters, starting with X..... lol.

  • Goldfinch60

    Thanks Orchi.

    I did mention the C word in a reply to a comment on my last poem but i may well have got away with it.

    True love has no boundaries, or borders and time and distance change it not ..
    the love maintained my friend between you and your dear wife are testimony to this enduring fact..

    A poignant and heartfelt post indeed

                Only her physical self has journeyed away from you, for she is very much alive and well in your memories.

                • Goldfinch60

                  So very true Suresh, she is still with me.
