There I was on this fine December day
Two long years ago
The sun was out, the sky was blue.
I was with her,
Sitting by her side.
The love of my life just lying there,
Lying in a hospital bed.
Looking out there was not a cloud in the sky.
As I sat as she sucked her last breath,
That is when it started raining
Raining in my heart.
My lover had moved on
Moved on into that wonderful sky,
And beyond.
She will be there for me,
Always be there for me,
Just waiting for me.
And on that day the tears will stop,
And it will no longer be
Raining in my heart.

A poignant write Gold.
Time went slowly then, maybe. Then fast perhaps - two years already.
Very true Orchi, thank you.

Very emotional write dear Andy
I always wonder how she was
And then through your poetry i can actually feel the presence of her
She was a lovely lady
And your love is eternal
One day you shall reunite again
But for now mps shall stall you for sometime to hear the wonderful tales and experiences of your life
Felt teary after reading this poetry
But could feel true love
You are most kind spilleronsheet, yes that love was there all our married life and still continues and will still be there when we are back together.
Andy
Gold , that was really really heart wrenching to read. Tough moments to part from our loved one.
But yes, we have memories to cherish the time spent with her. Those are a treasure and a booster dose to move ahead in such situations. Well written and really touching !!
Thank you VS, yes those memories will always be with me.
